Gender-neutral ruling in NSW court could have legal implications across Australia
A Sydney court ruling which allows a person to be registered as gender-neutral could potentially have legal implications around Australia.
In the first case of its kind in Australia, the New South Wales Court of Appeal yesterday ruled that a person does not have to be registered as male or female.
Norrie, who goes by only one name and was born as a male, underwent sexual reassignment surgery in 1989.
Three years ago the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages issued a certificate showing Norrie's sex as not specified.
