Compensation.
 
 

An Australian couple won $10,000 after a Christian-leaning welfare agency refused to let them become foster parents. The tribunal's ruling read: "The evidence makes it clear that a heterosexual person in the same position as each applicant would have been provided with the services necessary to allow an application to become a foster carer to be processed and assessed on its merits. We find the refusal to provide those services constitutes less favorable treatment." [News AU]
