(1)         eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct that is prohibited by or under the Act;

(2)         advance equality of opportunity between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and persons who do not share it; and

(3)         foster good relations between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and persons who do not share it.
