Dear Australian Human Rights Commission,

I request documents dated from 1 october

2023 to 1 october 2025 that show that the organisation holds a copy of the
document "elimination of all forms of racial discrimination - introductory
guidance and strategues for the legal profession" by the law society of
new south wales.

I request any document within the same dates that show that the law
society of nsw document does not include within its actions any direct
referencr to eliminating racism by invoking legal protections by suing
under the racial discrimination act

My foi request to dfat shows that no such document exists within dfat
