Abstract
Prior to the passage of the MA Act, assistance between Australia and other countries was rendered informally through Interpol and other informal agreements (Customs Cooperation Council) and was limited to investigations. The major exception to that limitation was that Australia's pre-existing extradition legislation already enabled it to take evidence on behalf of foreign countries for their use in criminal proceedings; however, this could be done unilaterally and carried no obligation of reciprocity.
