My question is to the Prime Minister. My community is deeply concerned about protecting all Australians from discrimination, no matter their gender, sexuality or faith. During the last election, a young trans person came to me, heartbroken at the exclusion they faced at school. They asked me to stand up for the LGBTQIA community. Every day we delay action on discrimination law is another day a student could be excluded from school because of who they are. How can parliament work together to strengthen protections for the LGBTQIA community as well as for people of faith?
