Abstract
The Australian Law Reform Commission, in its Report on Traditional Rights and
Freedoms, concluded that: "Australians enjoy the freedom to worship and observe religion,
and the freedom not to be coerced into engaging in religious practices." The ALRC report
also notes that a tension exists in relation to the intersection between religious freedom and
anti-discrimination law. The Chair’s Foreword to the interim report of the current Senate
Committee Inquiry on Religious Freedom (the Fawcett Inquiry) also echoes this concern.
