DISABILITY DISCRIMINATION ACT 1992 No. 135 of 1992 - SECT 5

5.(1) For the purposes of this Act, a person ("discriminator") discriminates
against another person ("aggrieved person") on the ground of a disability of
the aggrieved person if, because of the aggrieved person's disability, the
discriminator treats or proposes to treat the aggrieved person less favourably
than, in circumstances that are the same or are not materially different, the
discriminator treats or would treat a person without the disability.

(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), circumstances in which a person treats
or would treat another person with a disability are not materially different
because of the fact that different accommodation or services may be required
by the person with a disability.
