The Attorney General has asked the Law Reform Commission to review the Anti-Discrimination Act 1977 (NSW).
Update: consultation paper released
We’ve released the first consultation paper (PDF, 2.2 MB) in our review of the ADA. This paper focuses on the conduct prohibited by the ADA, including discrimination, vilification, sexual harassment and victimisation.
We ask if any of these aspects of the ADA should change and, if so, how?
We’ve also released:
- A Community Summary (PDF, 407.1 KB) of the consultation paper. This summarises the key issues, concerns and some ideas for reform.
- An Easy Read consultation paper (PDF, 3.9 MB). This contains simple language and pictures to help make information easier to understand. It also asks basic questions about the ADA.
Word versions are available under key documents, below.
How to have your say
We’d like to hear your views about the ADA. You can:
- complete our community survey on the ADA – external site
- make a submission in response to the issues and questions raised in our consultation paper
- answer the questions in our Easy Read consultation paper.
The due date is 15 August 2025.
