Equality bulletin #45

This Equality bulletin was issued on August 11th, 2005.

 

Welcome to Equality Bulletin #45.

In this edition there are calls to action over the formal recognition of same-sex relationships in the ACT, and a legal challenge against the ban on sexually active gay and bisexual men giving blood.

There is also an up-date on events planned for the National Day of Action on marriage and relationship law reform on Saturday, August 13th.

At the end of the bulletin there are details some up-coming queer political and cultural events in Tasmania.

In the previous Equality Bulletin, I included a long list of statistics about discrimination and abuse against LGBT people in Tasmania and nationally. While no-one complained, I should apologise. It was my intention to simply include a www link to that information.

It remains my intention to make these bulletins as brief and to-the-point as possible.
