Thursday, 12 November 10–13h CET + Friday 13 November 15–18h CET: Review of Austria (public), see transcript: The state party flat-out denied any responsability while invoking "leadership in transgender-intersex issues".
>>> The Committee issued strong Concluding Observations for Austria, citicising IGM practices as a "inhuman treatment" in breach of the Convention against Torture.
>>> In its 56th Session the Committee also examined IGM practices
in Denmark and in Hong Kong, again issuing Concluding Observations. This marked the very first time that IGM Practices were examined in more than one Country in a single Session of any UN Committee!
