Conversion Practices Prohibition Legislation Bill
The Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand (MHF) wishes to see the end of conversion practices in Aotearoa New Zealand.
The Bill aims to stop conversion practices in Aotearoa which seek to change or suppress a person’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. It creates two new criminal offences to deter conversion practices and utilises the Human Rights Commission’s existing functions to provide a civil redress scheme for conversion practices.
