to develop a greater understanding of TS health
issues.
m.a.n. now eagerly awaits the formation of the focus
group that will work to address the specific needs of
people such as our membership.
The papers are finally on line.
This is relevant to all people who access services in

Victoria Police
The Victoria Police recently provided the
opportunity for consultation and input into the
development of their new Search Procedures.
In December last year m.a.n. met with Inspector Stuart
King and Sergeant Mitchell from the Equity and Diversity
Unit as part of this process. m.a.n. hopes to have
further contact with them in the future so if you are
aware of issues that need to be addressed and you would
like m.a.n. to raise them on your behalf please send your
request via email.
VGLRL Rights Publication "Over the Rainbow"
http://home.vicnet.net.au/~vglrl/
to download the document.
m.a.n. is pleased that we have had involvement with
the development of the Rights Publication by VGLRL while
this publication can by no means go into the compelx
legal issues faced by men with TS and their SO's but it
is a good starting point. It is hoped that in the future
a specific publication can be developed.
