Section 109 of the Australian Constitution, which provides that federal law prevails over state law in cases of inconsistency, aims to create a uniform legal framework across the country. While it promotes a cohesive national policy, it can be perceived as limiting the states' legislative powers and autonomy. Critics argue that it may diminish the ability of states to address local issues effectively, while supporters contend that it ensures a consistent application of laws. Ultimately, whether it is deemed fair depends on one's perspective on the balance between state and federal authority.

No. Australia's first national anthem was "God Save the Queen". Australia wasn't independent in 1901 when Federation occurred; it was a self-governing colony (refer to section 8 in the preamble to the Australian Constitution). Australian Troops actually returned from WWI in 1919 on British passports. Australia was also not independent in 1931, despite the Statute of Westminster; the commonwealth and the states were still subject to a higher power in varying degrees. Once again, Australian Troops returned from WWII in 1946 on British Passports. This is why God Save the Queen remained our national anthem for so long. Australia selected its new national anthem of Advance Australia Fair in 1984. As stated by the Chief Justice of the Australian high court in 1992: "The Australia Act 1986 (UK) marked the end of the legal sovereignty of the Imperial Parliament and recognised that ultimate sovereignty resided in the Australian people".
