Where this comes from
The official form is published by qcat.qld.gov.au; this page is a completion guide. Last checked on 2026-10-22.
When to use it
Use when a complainant files contentions on a referral under the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991. The forms page says the form is completed for a complainant's contentions on that referral. The respondent uses the respondent's contentions form.
Used for these tasks
- Draft a discrimination complaint and the respondent's response
- Take a discrimination complaint from the commission to the court or tribunal
Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.
How AI may be used
AI may check the draft against the current official form and list what is missing; the lawyer settles every statement that will be filed and signs or lodges the form.
AI may
- Check the draft is the current version of the form and list every blank field or missing attachment
- Index the documents on the file that the form calls for, with date and author
- Turn the court's published filing and service steps into a checklist for this matter
AI must not
- Must not write allegations, grounds, orders or figures in words that will be filed
- Must not decide jurisdiction, standing or whether a time limit has been met
- Must not sign, lodge or serve the form
The lawyer checks
- The contentions are the complainant's, on a referral under the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991
- The current form is used
- The contentions are settled by the lawyer
- The respondent's form is not used for the complainant's contentions
Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
