I-Australia yenze umthetho omusha namuhla ogunyaza isigwebo esincane sokuboshwa unyaka owodwa kubantu ababonisa indesheni yamaNazi noma ezinye “izimpawu zenzondo.”
Lesi senzo somthetho siza ngokuphendula uchungechunge lwezigameko eziphawulekayo ezimelene namaSemite, ezihlanganisa ukucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zokukhulekela zamaJuda nezikhungo zomphakathi ezinezimpawu zamaNazi.
Igunyazwe ekuqaleni ngoJanuwari 2024, izichibiyelo zakamuva zomthetho zigunyaza isigwebo esiyimpoqo sokuboshwa izephulamthetho. Labo abalahlwe amacala okubonisa indelelo yamaNazi noma izimpawu zenzondo ngenhloso yokugqugquzela inzondo noma ukwesabisa abanye manje bazonikezwa isigwebo esincane esiyisibopho sonyaka owodwa ejele.
Umthetho omusha futhi ugunyaza ukuthi kube nesigwebo esincane seminyaka emithathu sokuxhasa ubuphekula ngezimali kanye nesigwebo seminyaka eyisithupha ngokwenza noma ukuhlela izenzo zobuphekula.
Lo mthetho ohlongozwayo kubikwa ukuthi uthole ukwesekwa yizinhlangano eziningi zomphakathi ezizimisele ukubhekana nenzondo nokucwasa.
Nakuba izikhulu zase-Australia zithi lo mthetho omusha uqondise ukwanda kwenkulumo enenzondo nezenzo ezeqisayo esizweni, udale nokukhathazeka mayelana nemithelela yawo enkululekweni yokukhuluma.
Abagqugquzeli abaningi benkululeko baye baphikisa ngokuthi, nakuba umgomo wokunciphisa inkulumo enenzondo utuseka, kubalulekile ukuba imithetho isetshenziswe ngokuqapha ukuze kuvinjelwe ukwephulwa kwamalungelo abantu ngabanye.
Nokho, ngokusho kwabahlaziyi bezomthetho, lo mthetho uhlanganisa izinyathelo eziklanyelwe ukuvumelanisa ukuphoqelelwa komthetho nokuvikela inkulumo ekhululekile. Ngokukhethekile, umthetho uyakwenqabela ukuboniswa kwezimpawu zenzondo uma kuhloswe ukwesabisa noma ukuvusa inzondo eqenjini elithile.
Okuhlukile kuvunyelwe ngezinjongo ezivumelekile ezifana nemfundo, izinkulumo zobuciko, noma izifundo zomlando.
Amaphoyisa ase-Australia kanye nabanye abasebenzi bomthetho nabo bazoqeqeshwa ukuze baqinisekise ukuthotshelwa okufanele komthetho omusha, kusho uhulumeni.
