Summary of scope of Australian racial discrimination laws
The various Australian acts relating to racial discrimination use different
definitions of “race” and some of the State and Territory
legislative definitions provide wider coverage than the Federal Racial
Discrimination Act. The table below summarises the scope and the interpretation
of “race” in each of the acts using terminology contained in those acts. No inferences are made about the scope and interpretation of “race” as defined in each act.
