Sexual Orientation Law Reform


Since 1 January 2007 it has been unlawful to discriminate on grounds of sexual orientation in the provision of goods, facilities and services, education and public functions. Up until then, the law only applied to employment and vocational training.

The Commission recommends reform of the sexual orientation equality law against discrimination and harassment.
