Here are the human rights commission's recommendations to the government - The Sex Files, dealing with the problems of documentation that Intersexed, Transsexual, and Transgendered people face:

    Recommendation 1:

    Marital status should not be a relevant consideration as to whether or not a person can request a change in legal sex.

    Recommendation 2:

    The definition of sex affirmation treatment should be broadened so that surgery is not the only criteria for a change in legal sex.
