an extra $1million to the project in order to “</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri">improve community consultation and monitoring
of the resettlement process” as well as financially assist with the
resettlement packages. In a case of too little too late, a week later a group
of NGOs, Cambodian families and the Human Rights Law Centre filed a complaint
about human rights breaches with the Australian Human Rights Commission. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"><br>
Emphasising many of the issues that were first raised by AID/WATCH, the Human
Rights Law Centre and the families are arguing that the Australian Government
has breached international human rights obligations by funding the project
without safeguarding their rights. The lack of progress on resettlements is a
breach of international human rights obligations, with thousands of families
still awaiting compensation for their lost homes, incomes and gardens. </span></p>
