Barely a week after the news of the granting of a 'Sex Not Specified' Recognised Details Certificate in place of a birth certificate to norrie mAy-Welby, SAGE Australia  and others  are reporting that:

    "The Attorney General of NSW has pressured the NSW registery of Births, Deaths and Marriages to revoke the Sex Not Specifed status of Norrie May Welby. The inhumane actions and total lack of understanding by the Attorney General in this matter has led to the lodgement of an offical complaint to the Australian Human Rights Commission under the 1984 Sex Discrimination Act."
