Banned homos

Nicholas Parry made this Official Information request to Office of Film and Literature Classification

There was a delivery error or similar, which needs fixing by the FYI team.

From: Nicholas Parry

Dear Office of Film and Literature Classification,

Could you send me a list of all media that’s been banned for containing “homosexual themes”, “lesbian themes, “queer themes” or other lgbtq related reasons.

Could you break this down into two lists one showing those that are banned for just lgbtq related stuff and one that’s also banned for other things (such as exploitation of a minor)

Please provide as ether a table or csv. Please include any extra informations (date of publication, date of classification, author, who reviewed it etc) as reasonable

Ngā mihi nui,
Nicholas Parry
