Thank you to all the people who have supported this petition todate.


More support is required in order to send a message to the Queensland government that it is unlawful to discriminate and that it must change its funeral assistance policy accordingly.


I would very much appreciate if you could help spread the word about this petition to family members, friends, via social media, politicians, community leaders and others in order to gain additional support.
