Chapter: 487 Title: DISABILITY DISCRIMINATION ORDINANCE Gazette Number:    
Section: 7 Heading: Discrimination by way of victimisation Version Date: 30/06/1997

(1) A discriminator discriminates against another person ("the person victimised") in any circumstances relevant for the purposes of any provision of this Ordinance if he treats the person victimised less favourably than in those circumstances he treats or would treat other persons, and does so by reason that the person victimised or any other person ("the third person") has-
(a) brought proceedings against the discriminator or any other person under this Ordinance;
(b) given evidence or information in connection with proceedings brought by any person against the discriminator or any other person under this Ordinance;
(c) otherwise done anything under or by reference to this Ordinance in relation to the discriminator or any other person; or
(d) alleged that the discriminator or any other person has committed an act which (whether or not the allegation so states) would amount to a contravention of this Ordinance,
or by reason that the discriminator knows the person victimised or the third person, as the case may be, intends to do any of those things, or suspects the person victimised or the third person, as the case may be, has done, or intends to do, any of them.
(2) Subsection (1) shall not apply to treatment of a person by reason of any allegation made by him if the allegation was false and not made in good faith.

(Enacted 1995)
