Submission for the Inquiry into Australia’s Human Rights Framework

The Australian Government are reviewing the scope and effectiveness of Australia's 2010 Human Rights Framework and the National Human Rights Action Plan;

• to consider whether the Framework should be re-established, as well as the components of the Framework, and any improvements that should be made;

• to consider developments since 2010 in Australian human rights laws (both at the Commonwealth and State and Territory levels) and relevant case law; and

• to consider any other relevant matters.

We’ve written a detailed submission for the inquiry into Australia’s human rights framework because the current framework is woefully inadequate for LGB people.
