Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection
General Scheme of Gender Recognition Bill 2013: Discussion
2:50 pm
Ms Simonetta Ryan:
The Chairman is correct. This does not really fall within my area of competence, but I know that the number of practitioners in the field is growing. All that will be required will be for them to supply a short document. They will not be obliged to provide a raft of back-up information or anything of that nature. It is much more straightforward.
I was not stating reversal was reckless. Far be it from me to say that. However, regardless of one's view on the matter, it would not be reasonable to rely on it to advance the issue around age.
