Bill to Introduce Fictional Birth Certificates Presented to Qld. Parliament
Queensland attorney-general Shannon Fentiman said the bill aims to strengthen legal recognition of trans and gender-diverse Queenslanders. "In developing the bill, we have carefully considered the experiences of LGBTIQ+ stakeholders, the difficulties they face and the recommendations they made in order to get these reforms right. Quite simply—we listened and this bill is the result," she said, in a barefaced fit of obfuscation.
Fentiman has refused to meet with lesbians and women's groups in Queensland to hear their concerns about the proposed legislation.
