Ms Sophie Nelson:

I thank the Deputy for her question and I agree with her statement that LGBTQIA+ must be locked in to these conversations. I agree there is a problem within institutions. Many of these institutions were historically patriarchal and have not taken enough steps at their core to address that and change it. There is real value in doing some of this community grassroots work I have spoken about within my presentation. We also need to have a citizens' assembly on this, a more formal citizens' forum. There needs to be representation of LGBTQIA+ women within that. When we are able to start this process by including marginalised women at its core, then that will filter into the institutions that are then reformed within this new constitutional change.
