Thanks and kudos to GayNZ for being the first media outlet to
report on the
recent review of NZ (transcription) by the Committee on the Rights of the
Child (CRC) during its 73rd session – thrice:
>>> Report on the
intersex Q&A (19.9.)
>>> Comment on the
"shameful silence" in the Gov replies (23.9.)
>>> The main body of
the private ITANZ NGO report (24.9.)
(No thanks and kudos however for repeatedly reproducing our transcription and photo without giving a link to the source and no credit at all respectively, and for partially not being able to spell out StopIGM.org in another instance.)
Let's hope that also mainstream media will pick up this important topic – latest when NZ is going to be reprimanded in about a week or so!
