"Federal police will be able to fit terrorist suspects with tracking devices for 12 months, and their state counterparts could be allowed to hold people without charge for two weeks, under Federal Government plans to toughen security laws.
The Government also plans to make it harder for foreigners to get Australian citizenship and to introduce new offences of inciting violence against community groups and Australian forces overseas, and leaving baggage unattended at airports."
