Catholic Bishop threatens to close NT schools over anti-discrimination laws
Remove Ads The Catholic Church has threatened to close its schools in the Northern Territory if the government's controversial anti-discrimination legislation is passed this week. The legislation removes an exemption that allows Christian schools to only hire staff who uphold the school's Christian ethos. Darwin's Bishop Charles Gauci said the church would have little choice but to close the territory's 18 schools if the news rules were legislated. 'If we cannot have proper Catholic schools in our school (system), and I'm sure that will be true for many other of the faith schools as well … if you cannot be authentic, what's the point of having them,' he said.
