Section 25 of the Constitution of Australia

Section 25 of the Constitution of Australia is a provision of the Constitution of Australia headed ‘Provision as to races disqualified from voting’ and providing that ‘For the purposes of the last section, if by the law of any State all persons of any race are disqualified from voting at elections for the more numerous House of the Parliament of the State, then, in reckoning the number of the people of the State or of the Commonwealth, persons of that race resident in that State shall not be counted.’ 〔''Australian Constitution'' s 25.〕
==History==
The section was proposed in the 1890s constitutional conventions by Andrew Inglis Clark (Tasmanian Attorney-General) who adapted the wording from a 19th-century amendment to the US constitution.〔George Williams, ‘Removing racism from Australia’s constitutional DNA’ (2012) 37(3) Alternative Law Journal 151, p. 151〕
The section was intended to act as a penalty, so that if a state disqualified people of a certain race from voting, that state’s level of federal representation would suffer: However the fact that it acknowledges that states can in fact disqualify people on the basis of race, is antithetical to the concept of equality between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.〔 Nevertheless, such discrimination remains legally possible under the Australian Constitution.
