''R v Richards; Ex parte Fitzpatrick and Browne'' (1955) 92 CLR 157, was a legal case which eventually limited the right of privilege of the Australian Parliament. ==Background== On 3 May 1955, Charles Morgan, member of the House of Representatives for the Division of Reid in New South Wales, informed Parliament that an article appearing in the ''Bankstown Observer'' for 28 April 1955 had impugned his personal honour and challenged his fitness to be a Member of Parliament. In an article headed "MHR and Immigration Racket", it was alleged that Morgan, a lawyer before entering Parliament, had engaged in corrupt schemes involving refugee migration from Europe to Australia before World War II. The ''Bankstown Observer'', a free weekly newspaper distributed throughout areas of suburban Sydney that included the Reid electorate, was owned by Raymond Edward Fitzpatrick, a Bankstown businessman and political rival of Morgan. Morgan ended his speech by moving that the newspaper article be referred to the House of Representatives Standing Committee of Privileges (the 'Privileges Committee') for investigation. The House approved the motion.
