Independent Human Rights Review (QLD)

AACS, along with Christian Schools Australia (CSA), Adventist Schools Australia (ASA), and Associated Christian Schools (ACS) have made a submission to the Independent Human Rights Review of the Queensland Human Rights Act 2019.

In our submission we have stated that we believe the Act has failed to provide adequate protection for religious freedoms, and that it is critical that extensive consideration be given to the extent to which religious freedom is protected, promoted and understood. One of the key recommendations we proposed was "that only those rights clearly enunciated and protected in international covenants to which Australia is a signatory should be recognised in the Act".
