Dear Moira

 

We have answered the question in your email below under Question 2 in our
response attached:

 

The only clarification would be to add in the ‘potential’ as follows:

 

There are no communications or documents about cutting or reducing funding
towards services for the

LGBTQIA+ community and transgender and gender diverse populations as there
have been no

reductions or cuts in services nor have any been proposed as potential
cuts or reductions.

 

Kind regards

Dear Kathleen Smitheram,

 

Thank you for your helpful and informative response to my request.

 

As a point of clarification, could you please also provide any documents
or communications about any potential cut to or reduction of funding
toward services for LGBTQIA+ communities, trans and gender diverse
populations, or gender affirming care?

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Mx Moira Clunie
