REQUIRED: 

• • Advise Leanne and Kenny about their legal rights.  For example, you could discuss racial discrimination. Race is a protected attribute attribute in the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) and Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth). 
  • Ensure you refer to relevant sections and relevant case law (if applicable); Marks will be deducted if you discuss laws which are not relevant.

• Discuss Federal (Commonwealth) legislation only. Do not discuss state legislation (ie Victorian legislation).

• When discussing discrimination, you should identify whether the discrimination is direct discrimination or indirect discrimination.

• Discuss the process of taking the matter to a court or a tribunal. For example, if Leanne and Kenny complained to Australian Human Rights Commission, what is the process?  Will it investigate first?  Then conciliate?
