Anthony Albanese has recalled parliament early to deal with sweeping hate speech and gun laws in the wake of the Bondi terror attack.

The prime minister announced in Canberra the government would introduce omnibus legislation that would designate hate crime a "serious" offence and set up a national gun buyback scheme.

"The terrorists at Bondi Beach had hatred in their minds but guns in their hands. This law will deal with both and we need to deal with both," Mr Albanese said.

The federal government has been consulting on proposed changes to strengthen hate speech laws, including creating a regime for listing so-called hate organisations.

The laws will expand the ban on prohibited symbols and make it easier for the home affairs minister to cancel a visa.

Under the laws, to be introduced to parliament next Monday, the home affairs minister will be given the power to list organisations as 'prohibited hate groups'.

People will be barred from joining, supporting, recruiting, fundraising for and receiving funds from the prescribed groups.

If passed, the legislation will also create a new offence for inciting hatred in order to intimidate or harass.

"We want to ensure that Australia remains a society where everyone has the right to be proud of who they are and we also want to make it clear that conduct which is hateful, dangerous, and divisive will also be illegal," the prime minister said.

"Just as antisemitism and racism are an offence against our Australian values, they should be an offence against Australian law."

Coalition concerned hate speech, gun laws will be wrapped together

Attorney-General Michelle Rowland said, once passed, the legislation will be the toughest hate speech laws "ever seen" in Australia.

"They will specifically target those who seek to spread hatred and disrupt social cohesion in our community. And it will send a clear message that this conduct will not be tolerated," Ms Rowland said.

The changes to gun and hate speech laws will be introduced to parliament as a single bill, which the Coalition has flagged as a concern.
