Family Planning strongly supports banning conversion practices, which seek to change a person’s sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. These practices are proven harmful to the health and wellbeing of individuals and are an infringement on human rights.
Family Planning supports the proposed Conversion Practices Prohibition Legislation Bill but made a few recommendations in our submission for strengthening the Bill including making it an offence to subject anyone to conversion practices, regardless of age.
