For weeks PLUS TV has been crusading against the Health and Family Life Education resource book found in Primary schools across the country.
PLUS TV and other Christian advocates say the book - which was generated by peace corps volunteers - fosters pro gay and other morally dubious teachings to students in standards 4, 5 and 6.

The Ministry will now defer the matter to a committee which was set up earlier this year.
The release says the ministry is quote, "open to honest, productive dialogue with stakeholders on any concerns that…will advance the ultimate objective of ensuring that all Belizeans acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes for their full personal development.
