    A Complaint snippet fromWA Equal Opportunity Commission Newsletter:Discrimination Matters May 2010A Muslim complainant attended a recreation park along with a large group, also of the Muslim

    faith. The complainant said staff at the park had rudely and disrespectfully excluded the group

    from parts of the facility because their clothing had breached safety regulations. This caused

    others at the park to make racially and religiously offensive remarks. Park staff apologised, paid

    $16,000 as well as free admission to the facility and agreed to review its assessment of

    appropriate clothing. It also arranged a special welcome by managers to restore the relationshipbetween the group and the parks staff
