Senator George Brandis has an enquiry shortly.

There is ample grist for investigation into discrimination and inclusion in The Attorney General's upcoming inquisition into the legal fraternity. The pre cursor would need to be a desk full of complaints along similar lines involving the CAsA that would trigger a report to go via the enquiry to Parliament with some Independents copied in.


This costs nothing, although the conciliation phase could be open to "trickery" by CAsA. One would need to stand their ground here.


Australian Human Rights Commission Act 1986
Grounds of discrimination

Breaches of human rights by any Commonwealth body or agency and discrimination in employment on the basis of race, colour, sex, religion, political opinion, national extraction, social origin, age, medical record, criminal record, marital status, impairment, disability, nationality, sexual preference, trade union activity.
Areas covered

Commonwealth body or agency; employment and occupation.
Process for decision making

Complaint must be in writing. It is then assessed and if within jurisdiction is investigated. If complaint is not declined, conciliation is attempted. If it cannot be conciliated, the Commission prepares a report to the federal Attorney-General who then tables the report in Parliament.
