A central  part of the review of the Gender Recognition Act 2015 was a consultation process that sought to have the broadest  possible level of input in relation to the operation of the Act since its commencement. A public call for submissions was announced in early January 2018 with a closing date for receipt of submissions of  5 February 2018.  

The responses received were from a mix of private individuals, members of the Oireachtas, individual professionals, advocacy groups, and other organisations.

Full details of the written submissions are available on the Department's website at the following link:
