Is same-%!@@ law reform redefining parenthood and children?
Attorney-General Robert McClelland said 68 commonwealth laws will be changed in a major step to ensure full equality before the law for all Australians, regardless of their #!#uality.<br />
"The delay in removing this discrimination is a matter of shame for both sides of the house," Mr McClelland said.<br />
<br />
"It is time to stop treating people differently under commonwealth laws or programs because of who they love."<br />
<br />
The Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission found last year that at least 20,000 same-#@! couples experienced systemic discrimination on a daily basis, Mr McClelland said.<br />
<br />
The couples and their families were denied basic financial and work-related entitlements.<br />
