Make your voice heard on the proposed Religious Discrimination Bill

1 October, 2019

There’s only one more day to submit your view on the government’s proposed Religious Discrimination Bill.  

The Bill was introduced by the government in response to a review (the Religious Freedom Review) that concluded there’s an opportunity to further protect and better promote freedom of religion under Australian law and in the community.

Once the consultation process finishes this week, the Bill may be introduced to Parliament by the end of the year.

We encourage you to visit the website and make a formal submission because it’s important the government knows what Australians want: https://www.ag.gov.au/Consultations/Pages/religious-freedom-bills.aspx

For residents of Warringah, we're interested to hear your feedback on the Bill. Please email a copy of your submission to [email protected]
