Thank you for making a submission to the committee last week; members appreciated it. I’m just getting in
touch to confirm that you’re able to provide the information Jamie Strange asked for, which was a comparison
of actions other countries, especially OECD countries, have taken regarding providing gender-neutral bathrooms
in schools. Would you be able to provide that information by Friday 2 June 2023?
