We urged PBAC to support PBS access for postmenopausal women while adding safeguards to stop testosterone being diverted to younger women or used for “gender-affirming” purposes.
Our submission urges the NSQHS Standards review to strengthen evidence requirements, improve safeguarding for children, and ensure paediatric gender medicine is governed by rigorous, child-centred clinical standards.
LGB Alliance Australia has urged the NHMRC to strengthen its Draft Statement on Consumer and Community Involvement in Health and Medical Research. Our submission warns that the draft risks allowing advocacy interests to overshadow scientific independence and lacks strong conflict of interest safeguards. We also raise concerns about the draft’s reliance on lived experience without recognising viewpoint diversity, and we call for clearer role definitions that keep health research grounded in evidence and scientific integrity.
Our submission to the Queensland Review shows why puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for minors are unsafe, experimental, and lack strong evidence.
We outline the risks to same-sex attracted and gender-nonconforming young people and call for a cautious, evidence-led approach that puts safeguarding first.
Children in distress need careful assessment, not fast tracked medical pathways. They deserve a genuinely impartial NHMRC review shaped by evidence, not ideology. The panel announced this week lacks balance. Prominent clinicians who support cautious, evidence based approaches are missing.
This is Gay Conversion 2.0 and it must stop. Our full statement explains why.
The NSW Government is consulting on its proposed “LGBTIQA+” Inclusion Strategy, and it’s important that lesbian, gay and bisexual people take part. The survey has several problems. It treats the “LGBTIQA+” as a homogenous group, mixes sex with identity, and hides certain questions unless you give strongly supportive answers. If LGB people don’t respond, our needs and sex-based rights risk being overlooked.
We’ve prepared clear guidance to help you navigate the survey.
We have raised concerns that the ABC’s top tier participation in a lobbying group’s workplace index conflicts with its duty to remain independent and impartial. This scheme requires deep organisational compliance and adoption of gender-identity frameworks that are not disclosed to the public. ABC reporting now reflects these frameworks while major developments on sex based rights, safeguarding and the treatment of same-sex-attracted youth are barely covered. We have asked the ABC to explain its involvement, release the material provided and commit to an independent review.
We are supporting the Australian Doctor’s Federation who are asking medical professionals to sign a letter in support of Dr. Jillian Spencer.
