Bond v Commonwealth : ウィキペディア英語版 | Bond v Commonwealth
''Bond v Commonwealth'' (1903) was an early Australian legal case heard before the High Court of Australia that established that rights under the Australian constitution were over-riding over those under Commonwealth legislation.〔''Bond v Commonwealth'' (1903) (1 CLR 13 )〕〔Richard Edney, Mirko Bagaric, ''Australian Sentencing: Principles and Practice'', (Cambridge University Press, 2007) (p78 ).〕 The case was the second case heard by the High Court of Australia. ==Facts of the Case== Mr. Bond had been an employee of the Post and Telegraph Department of the State of Victoria, before it was transferred to the Commonwealth postal service on 1 March 1901, soon after federation, in accordance with Section 69 of the Australian Constitution.〔Commonwealth Of Australia Constitution, (section 69. )〕 Following the transfer, the Commonwealth paid Bond wages at the rate of £132 per annum instead of his previous wage of £150, and sued for the balance, under section 84 of the Constitution,〔Commonwealth Of Australia Constitution, (Section 84. )〕 which guaranteed commensurate wages for employees transferred to Commonwealth jurisdiction. The Commonwealth argued that the claim was not enforceable in a Court of law by virtue of sec. 78(1) of the ''Public Service Act 1902'', which came into effect on 1 January 1903, and provided: :"Nothing in this Act shall authorize the expenditure of any greater sum out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund by way of payment of any salary than is from time to time appropriated by the Parliament for that purpose"…〔〔''Public Service Act. 1902'', section 78.〕
