Updating, easily, to reflect historic law change 2023

Suggest adding a single word, "Previously," including comma to old top paragraph.

New, top, intro reads:

Same gender love was decriminalised in the Cook Islands after a controversial draft law amendment that sought to criminalise female as well male sex acts.

Previously, [old version continues]

Update source: https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/pacific-news/488258/cook-islands-rainbow-community-on-decriminalisation-of-same-sex-relations-it-was-about-equality

About 0% confidence* this new intro is the right wording, but it does need to be updated.

* had a few, plus wikipedia edit interface still does my head in. Jasonbrown1965 (talk) 08:31, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
