We have the Minister, Deputy Zappone, in next week for an update on the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, LGBTI, strategy. It is only a two year strategy so we are about a year in. I have not seen many actions completed but that said, they could be teeing everything up for the second the year. Relationships, sexuality, education, bullying in schools, gender recognition and the legal relationship between LGBTI parents and their children will all come up but it is a fitting grade given the publication of the strategy.

I would love to stay on the various details but we would be going around in circles if we did. I commend the work the Children's Rights Alliance has done.
