Debate resumed, on motion by Fran Bailey:

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.
