Emma and Megan unpack shocking FOI evidence showing systematic exclusion of women's groups from policies affecting our sex-based protections and rights. Whilst LGBTQIA+ organisations receive formal advisory positions, paid travel, and access to draft policies months before public consultation, women's groups scramble to respond to four-week consultation windows—if we discover them at all. From the 2013 SDA amendments that introduced 'gender identity' to the 2023 LGBTIQA+ Health Action Plan, the pattern is documented and damning. This is a clear breach of CEDAW Article 7—and it's producing bad policy with real harms for women and girls. Read the full FOI analysis and our demands at womensadvocacy.net.
