Summary: Homosexual Law Changes (Press, 31 July 1985)
The Mental Health Foundation conference held in Wellington was deemed a great success, according to a letter published in "The Press" on 31 July 1985. The author, Jocelyn V. Hay, expressed disappointment that Professor Ney attended only one day of the conference, coinciding with the presentation of his paper. The conclusion of the conference underscored important initiatives aimed at promoting mental health. A significant moment during the event was the unanimous support from participants for Fran Wilde's Homosexual Law Reform Bill. Hay emphasised that endorsing the bill was not about seeking a 'cure', but rather about addressing issues of human suffering and discrimination faced by valuable members of the community.
