The Registrar received a complaint about a promo on M-Net. The Tribunal has viewed the material televisionreferred to and has come to the conclusion that it does not amount to a contravention of the Code. It most certainly advertises a post watershed show in which lesbianism is portrayed as normal and natural. This accords with section 9 of the Constitution which prohibits unfair discrimination based on sexual orientation. Although promotional material is judged according to stricter rules, the promo did not contravene those rules. It advertised a show which is perfectly compatible with the Constitution, which is the supreme law.
