The inquiry is a positive step towards attaining equal treatment for men and women in same-sex relationships where there are deficits under Australian law relating to same-sex relationships. The primary issues identified in the terms of reference of the Inquiry relate to financial discrimination against same-sex couples in areas including superannuation, Defence and Veterans Affairs, social security and taxation, all of which are essentially matters of Federal responsibility and/or determination. This submission will provide a brief overview of the Anti-Discrimination Act 1998,(ADA) and the effect on the ADA of changes introduced by the Relationships Act 2003 (Tas) and Relationships (Consequential Amendment) Act 2003 (Tas). Overview of the ADA The ADA came into force on 10 December 1999. The ADA prohibits discrimination and other prohibited conduct and provides for the investigation and conciliation of, and inquiry into, complaints of discrimination and prohibited conduct. Relevantly, the ADA prohibits discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation and relationship status and also prohibits inciting hatred on the ground of sexual orientation (section 16). The ADA provides that it is unlawful to discriminate in the areas of employment; education and training; provision of facilities, goods and services; accommodation; membership and activities of clubs; administration of State laws or programs (on the grounds of gender, marital status, pregnancy, breastfeeding, parental status, family responsibilities and relationship status); and awards, enterprise agreements, or industrial agreements (on the grounds of gender, marital status, pregnancy, breastfeeding, parental status, family responsibilities and relationship status). The Commissioner administers the ADA and has the following functions: to advise and make recommendations to the Minister of Justice on matters relating to discrimination and prohibited conduct; to promote the recognition and approval of acceptable attitudes, acts and practices relating to discrimination and prohibited conduct; to consult and inquire into discrimination and prohibited conduct and the effects of discrimination and prohibited conduct; to disseminate information about discrimination and prohibited conduct and the effects of discrimination and prohibited conduct; to undertake research and educational programs, to promote attitudes, acts and practices against discrimination and prohibited conduct; to prepare and publish guidelines for the avoidance of attitudes, acts and practices relating to discrimination and prohibited conduct; to examine any legislation and report to the Minister as to whether it is discriminatory or not; and to investigate and seek to conciliate complaints. Impact of the Relationships Act 2003 (Tas) and the Relationships Act (Consequential Amendments) Act 2003 (Tas) on the ADA. On the 19 June 2003, the then Tasmanian Attorney-General, The Honourable, Judy Jackson, introduced into the House of Assembly the Relationships Bill and the Relationships (Consequential Amendments) Bill. In her speech, the Attorney stated: These two bills represent an acknowledgement from the Government that Tasmanians in the twenty-first century enjoy a wide variety of relationships. The Government accepts that the picture of the modern family is changing from one where a mother, father and their two children was the norm. Today people may marry or live in heterosexual or same sex relationships. They may share a house with parents, grandparents or perhaps with a carer or a companion. There are children in our community who are living with step-mum or step-dad, and there are some children who live with two mums or two dads. The Government accepts we have a responsibility to recognise the relationship choices Tasmanians are making every day and to support them in dealing with the changes in their lives. She said further: Other features of the legislative package include the recognition of caring relationships, where domestic support and personal care is provided by one partner to the other partner, or between partners. Tasmanians in caring relationships or significant relationships, including same-sex couples, will be able to register their relationship. A registration scheme will allow partners in these relationships to publicly acknowledge they are assuming a range of legal rights and obligations. The legislation also grants equal rights in the areas of public sector superannuation and special leave for public sector employees. The inheritance rights of partners in significant relationships are recognised in the case of intestacy or where a will has made inadequate provision for the dependants of the deceased person. We will also move to address discriminatory administrative policy and practices such as hospital policies that restrict access to other significant partners in times of medical emergency. In relation to the implications of the Relationships Act 2003 (Tas) and the Relationships (Consequential Amendments) Act 2003 (Tas) for rights of same-sex couples under various pieces of Tasmanian legislation, I refer you to the submission of Dr Samantha Hardy, Dr Sarah Middleton and Dr Lisa Butler. The ADA was amended by the Relationships (Consequential Amendments) Act to incorporate relationship status as an attribute. "Relationship status" is defined in s3 of the ADA as "the status of being or having been in a personal relationship, within the meaning of the Relationships Act 2003." Section 6 of the Relationships Act defines "personal relationship" as either a "significant relationship" or a "caring relationship." Relevantly, "significant relationship" is defined in s4 of the Relationships Act as: 4.Significant relationships (1) For the purposes of this Act, a significant relationship is a relationship between two adult persons (a) who have a relationship as a couple; and (b) who are not married to one another or related by family. (2) If a significant relationship is registered under  HYPERLINK "http://www.thelaw.tas.gov.au/tocview/content.w3p;cond=;doc_id=44%2B%2B2003%2BHP2%2FEN%2B20060914000000;histon=;prompt=;rec=;term=" \l "HP2@EN" \t "_self" Part2, proof of registration is proof of the relationship. (3) If a significant relationship is not registered under  HYPERLINK "http://www.thelaw.tas.gov.au/tocview/content.w3p;cond=;doc_id=44%2B%2B2003%2BHP2%2FEN%2B20060914000000;histon=;prompt=;rec=;term=" \l "HP2@EN" \t "_self" Part2, in determining whether two persons are in a significant relationship, all the circumstances of the relationship are to be taken into account, including such of the following matters as may be relevant in a particular case: (a) the duration of the relationship; (b) the nature and extent of common residence; (c) whether or not a sexual relationship exists; (d) the degree of financial dependence or interdependence, and any arrangements for financial support, between the parties; (e) the ownership, use and acquisition of property; (f) the degree of mutual commitment to a shared life; (g) the care and support of children; (h) the performance of household duties; and (i) the reputation and public aspects of the relationship. (4) No finding in respect of any of the matters mentioned in  HYPERLINK "http://www.thelaw.tas.gov.au/tocview/content.w3p;cond=;doc_id=44%2B%2B2003%2BGS4%2FGs3%2FHpa%2FEN%2B20060914000000;histon=;prompt=;rec=;term=" \l "GS4@Gs3@Hpa@EN" \t "_self" subsection(3)(a) to  HYPERLINK "http://www.thelaw.tas.gov.au/tocview/content.w3p;cond=;doc_id=44%2B%2B2003%2BGS4%2FGs3%2FHpi%2FEN%2B20060914000000;histon=;prompt=;rec=;term=" \l "GS4@Gs3@Hpi@EN" \t "_self" (i), or in respect of any combination of them, is to be regarded as necessary for the existence of a significant relationship, and a court determining whether such a relationship exists is entitled to have regard to such matters, and to attach such weight to any matter, as may seem appropriate to the court in the circumstances of the case. Same-sex couples fall within the meaning of "significant relationship" in the Relationships Act, as it is defined as a relationship between two adults, and not between two adults of a different sex. A same-sex couple can register a "deed of relationship" with the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages. The Registrar is required under s19 of the Relationships Act to maintain a Relationships Register. If a couple registers such a deed, it is proof that they are in a significant relationship. If they have not registered a deed of relationship, s4(3) of the Relationships Act lists the factors that may be taken into account in determining whether two persons are in a significant relationship (the list is inclusive; not exhaustive). Relationship status is an attribute covered in relation to all areas of activity prescribed by the ADA. However, there is an anomaly in the ADA in that the attribute of sexual orientation is not covered in relation to all areas of activity. Areas of activity administration of any law of the State and any State programme, and awards, enterprise agreements and industrial agreements. Currently under the ADA in relation to the areas of activity relating to the administration of any law of the State or any State program, and awards, enterprise agreements and industrial agreements, the coverage of attributes is limited to seven attributes. Historically, these attributes were covered under the Sex Discrimination Act 1994 (Tas), now repealed, and this section was essentially transferred from the Sex Discrimination Act to the ADA with little amendment. It may be argued that the areas of activity relating to the administration of state laws or state programs, and awards, enterprise agreement and industrial agreements should apply to all the attributes listed in section 16, including sexual orientation. Interestingly, these two areas were amended by the Relationships (Consequential Amendments) Act to encompass relationship status. Although sexual orientation is not covered in relation to these areas of activity, relationship status is. While the attribute of sexual orientation is excluded, relationship status would adequately cover any discrimination or prohibited conduct against same-sex couples in these areas. Couples would not be covered only if their relationship did not meet the criteria for a significant relationship see section 4(3) of the Relationships Act. Potentially, for example, if the relationship was not registered and was only of short duration, the partners did not reside together and were financially independent etc. In conclusion Generally speaking the ADA is progressive state legislation, providing wide protection against discrimination and prohibited conduct for persons in same-sex relationships in areas of activity for which the Act provides coverage. The primary role of the OADC is two fold: to advocate for the Act and to provide community education and training for the purpose of eliminating discriminatory behaviour and practices. There has been a long history in Tasmania of active participation by community and advocacy groups contributing to public debate that has identified areas requiring legislative and policy change to promote human rights and to address discrimination against people in same-sex relationships. The OADC wishes to applaud and acknowledge the work, submissions and achievements made by Tasmanian gay and lesbian rights lobby groups, in relation to the recognition of same-sex relationships. There can be no doubt that Tasmanian lobby groups have been instrumental in influencing the Tasmanian Government in providing equal opportunities for the Tasmanian gay and lesbian community.
