In July 2012 The Laws of Australia (TLA) team was able to schedule another meeting with TLA’s Editor in Chief, The Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG. Michael Kirby plays an invaluable role on The Laws of Australia, advising on the prioritisation of publishing and the direction of legal developments generally.

Our agenda for this meeting was reviewing our publishing highlights, detailing our commissioning priorities, tracking our TLA book publishing progress and enlisting Michael Kirby’s assistance on difficult commissioning projects. We also enjoyed a morning tea with the full TLA editorial team. As always, it was a valuable and productive meeting and we thank Michael Kirby once again for his time and for his leadership of The Laws of Australia's development.

The most exciting part of the day was that Michael Kirby offered to answer some questions about his role as TLA Editor-in-Chief .

Are you interested in knowing what his role entails?

Or what he most wants to achieve?

Or why he recommends TLA as his preferred encyclopedia?
