to move:
That the House:
- (1)
- recognises the unapproved recipients of hormone treatments, including young men and boys who received human growth hormone, between 1960 and the mid 1980s;
- (2)
- acknowledges that the report it commissioned in 1993, known as the Allars Inquiry, found that approved female patients receiving the same treatment for infertility suffered negative effects and as a result of that report, received compensation from the Commonwealth; and
- (3)
- recognises the male recipients—both approved and unapproved—who received the same hormone treatment for growth purposes and provides similar compensation.
