The Equal Opportunity Commission has summoned Liberal Tasmanian Senator Claire Chandler over remarks she made about free speech and that women’s sports and toilets should remain as spaces exclusively for biological women.

The letter from Tasmania’s anti-discrimination commissioner, reportedly seen by News Corp’s Mercury newspaper, said Chandler’s remarks might be seen as discriminatory against those who do not identify with the sex recorded at their birth.
