IHRA has made a submission to each of two inquiries on the Commonwealth government's religious discrimination bills package. The inquiries are conducted on the same package of bills, by the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights, and the Senate Standing Committees on Legal and Constitutional Affairs. Like many other organisations, we made the same submission to each inquiry. We have also endorsed submissions by Equality Australia.

As of 5 January 2022, both Committees have now published our submission:
