NSW Anti-Discrimination Board, 'Study of Street Offences by Aborigines' (Report, June 1982) 

Offensive conduct and language offences in New South Wales aim to regulate public behaviour by enforcing community standards. However, these laws rely on broad police discretion, which has led to disproportionate impacts on Aboriginal people, especially in regional areas. This has prompted continued calls for law reform.
