The Australasian Legal Information Institute is a joint facility of University of Technology Sydney and University of New South Wales faculties of law and provides free internet access to Australasian legal materials.

AustLII publishes public legal information: that is, primary legal materials (legislation, treaties and decisions of courts and tribunals); and secondary legal materials created by public bodies for purposes of public access (law reform and royal commission reports etc). These materials are listed under AustLII Databases on the AustLII website at www.austlii.edu.au.

There are Codes that are referenced in legislation, that adopt Australian Standards, which are not included on the AustLII database. These include the Building Code of Australia and the Food Standards Code. Please refer to these bodies responsible for these codes for further detail.
