Restoring Parents’ Rights By Mrs Vera West
Mark Latham has a bill to restore Parents' Rights at Schools - parents
(not schools) are primarily responsible for children's moral education. I could not agree more.
“Education Legislation Amendment (Parental Rights) Bill 2020
This Bill addresses important issues about the rights of parents to have their views about morality (and sexual morality and issues of sexual identity in particular) respected and not undermined by the education system of NSW. Freedom for Faith has been greatly assisted in its consideration of the proposed Bill by comments provided by the Institute for Civil Society. We adopt and support that submission’s recommendations for refinement and narrowing of certain provisions of the proposed Bill to make it more workable. The remainder of this submission addresses the general policy issues behind the Bill and why international religious freedom obligations support the enactment of legislation of this nature.”
