‘Gay’ group in recess
PA Wellington A pressure group formed during the community debate on the homosexual law reform bill, Heterosexuals Unafraid of Gays, is going into recess. “There is still a lot to do — passing the Homosexual Law Reform Act
was only a first step,” said the group’s Wellington coordinator, Kim Saffron. “We will re-form when we need to, either when there is a move to pass part 2 of the bill (which would grant simply human equality to homosexuals and lesbians) or if oponents of reform renew
their attacks on the act.” “Some people are still afraid of gays and lesbians.” . The evidence for that was a fire in the Lesbians and Gay Resource Centre, and it was highly appropriate that H.U.G. would give most of its assets to the centre, the group said.
