The motion to investigate the use and impact of puberty blockers on children experiencing gender dysphoria has been rejected by the centre-left Labor government and the left-wing Greens.
This was the second time the government rejected the inquiry, first introduced by One Nation leader Senator Pauline Hanson in late 2022.
