Exactly, they just do their job, it is the responsibility of the politicians to ensure they stay inside the bounds of the constitution and how the constitution is interpreted goes back to how well the original intent was encompassed and laid out, so that it couldn't be misinterpreted.

The High Court is the highest court in the Australian judicial system. It was established in 1901 by Section 71 of the Constitution. The functions of the High Court are to interpret and apply the law of Australia; to decide cases of special federal significance including challenges to the constitutional validity of laws and to hear appeals, by special leave, from Federal, State and Territory courts.
