There is a debate and there are different theories and understandings about international best practice, but that does not mean that we should disregard it. I am a little concerned that there is not agreement about that. There are trends and gatherings that identify that practice, such as the Yogyakarta principles, which are not the same kind of hard and binding law as others. I would question that.

I would love to have heard the Minister say - he still might be willing to say it - that even though he might not be the Minister involved, there would be a full review, with attention to international human rights standards.
