2023 parliamentary candidates' views on protecting children from genital mutilation

In November 2020, the parliament voted on whether, and to what extent, both girls and boys should be included in the legislative preparation for protection from non-medical cutting of children's genitals. Here, the votes given by the members of parliament are reported.

During the last five parliamentary elections, the Vapaa-ajattelijain liitto ry has had a survey with questions related to freedom of religion, belief and thought. One of these issues concerns the non-medical circumcision of boys.
