520 | _aThis Inquiry aimed to examine the possibility of indirect discrimination in the provision of public housing to Aboriginal people by Homeswest, the rental accommodation division of the Western Australian Department of Housing and Works ('DHW'), and to disclose the far-reaching consequences of such discrimination. The Inquiry recognised that there are two types of discrimination, direct and indirect. While both are evident in society, and have the capacity to irrevocably damage a person's self worth and everyday existence, the practices and procedures of organisations, and unconscious behaviours of individuals, may be permeated by indirect discrimination. Such systemic discrimination, while unintentional, can seriously damage the life experiences of individuals. | ||
