It is not a first draft.  It is an abbreviated version of the document they distributed secretly to ISPs in 2009/10.  Significant parts of it are word-for-word identical.

Make no mistake:  This is a policy which is coming from AGD, not from our elected representatives.  The Department is indifferent to who their A-G is.  i.e., the policy remains the same regardless of who we vote for, there is no realistic democratic choice being presented to the electorate.  If there’s another election tomorrow, and the Coalition loses, this policy will survive unscathed.
