Guns: How Australia’s tightening laws compare globally

Australia is poised to overhaul its gun laws in the wake of the terror attack on Jewish festivalgoers at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Monday tabled changes to national laws at a meeting of the National Cabinet, a roundtable of the nation’s federal, state and territory leaders.

They includes bringing into effect a national firearms register, which is anticipated would allow information sharing on gun owners across state borders.
