What is the Anti-Discrimination List?
The Anti-Discrimination List is in the Civil Division of the Victorian Civil & Administrative Tribunal ("VCAT").
The Anti-Discrimination List ("ADL") hears and determines complaints referred to it by the
Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission under the
Equal Opportunity Act 1995 ("the EO Act") and the
Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001.
You can view a copy of these Acts on the Victorian Legislation and Parliamentary Documents website at
