<p>Conversion therapy is wrong and we are committed to ending these practices.</p><p>We
have committed to considering all legislative and non-legislative options to prohibit
promoting, offering or conducting these practices whether they are occurring in a
medical, commercial or faith-based context.</p><p>The LGBT Advisory Panel are looking
at conversion therapy to help us identify the most effective actions to end it. We
are conducting detailed research into the experiences of those that have undergone
conversion therapy and how it has affected them.</p><p>This is a complex issue that
we will be approaching sensitively. We are engaging widely before bringing forward
proposals, and we will consult on the final package to ensure that the actions we
take are proportionate, targeted and effective.</p>
