Sydney gay and lesbian radio program Gaywaves presenter Dietmar Hollman reports in November 1985 on proposed legislation (which would become the 1985 Public Health Proclaimed Diseases Amendment Act) that would require doctors to notify the New South Wales Health Department of HIV-positive patients.
The report features interviews with activist John Cazan, Sydney City councillors Craig Johnston and Brian McGahen and New South Wales Anti-Discrimination Board president Carmel Niland.
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live and gives respect to their Elders both past and present.
