有点疑问,如果在聚会中有网友使用中国国旗,当然前提是这个聚会地点是公共场所,活动组织者劝其离开,算不算歧视?如果算,那么这是违犯澳洲法律的。
Under "Racial Discrimination Act 1975"
section 11: Access to places and facilities
It is unlawful for a person:
(a) to refuse to allow another person access to or use of any
place or vehicle that members of the public are, or a section
of the public is, entitled or allowed to enter or use, or to
refuse to allow another person access to or use of any such
place or vehicle except on less favourable terms or conditions
than those upon or subject to which he or she would
otherwise allow access to or use of that place or vehicle;
(b) to refuse to allow another person use of any facilities in any
such place or vehicle that are available to members of the
public or to a section of the public, or to refuse to allow
another person use of any such facilities except on less
favourable terms or conditions than those upon or subject to
which he or she would otherwise allow use of those facilities;
or
(c) to require another person to leave or cease to use any such
place or vehicle or any such facilities;
by reason of the race, colour or national or ethnic origin of that
other person or of any relative or associate of that other person.
section 9中也有这样的叙述:
9 Racial discrimination to be unlawful
(1) It is unlawful for a person to do any act involving a distinction,
exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent
or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of
nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on
an equal footing, of any human right or fundamental freedom in the
political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life. |
