On sexual orientation, people find it to be a big issue with males being comfortable coming out, as I think we would all recognise. I think the supports they have at home, not from their friends but from their families, is a huge issue that we are often afraid to speak about. It is something that must be met head on. I am not sure what the witnesses' views are on that but perhaps Ms O'Sullivan will address it since she mentioned it in her opening remarks.
