Australian universities should be forced to seek government approval before entering any type of agreement with China, a federal government inquiry has been told. In a submission to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security s inquiry on foreign interference in the higher education sector, the Falun Dafa Association of Australia said the federal government needed the power to veto agreements as anything related to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is inevitably related to our national security . Falun Dafa, also called Falun Gong, is a spiritual exercise which was outlawed in China in 1999. In its 12-page submission to the inquiry earlier this month, the association also recommended the federal government create a program to help universities have a full knowledge of the Chinese Communist Party, its methods of operation and risks .
