Australia’s peak Islamic body has warned of increased discrimination towards Muslims in a submission urging stronger protections be cast in the Morrison government’s Religious Discrimination Bill. In its submission lodged by President Dr Rateb Jneid, it declares draft laws prescribed in the Religious Discrimination Bill do not go far enough within an increasingly intolerant society. The submission states safeguarding the rights of people to practice their religion is paramount to protecting against this discrimination. “There is now a growing body of evidence to support this increased intolerance towards Muslims and their beliefs and practices,” the submission reads. “Australian society has become more intolerance of minorities, and religious minorities specifically … that intolerance we submit has led to an increased level of discrimination.”
