Description
On 1 June 1999, NSW Parliament passed amendments to the De Facto Relationships Act 1984, extending the rights given to heterosexual couples to same sex couples and people in domestic relationships (eg. carers). This issue of Hot Topics provides an overview of these significant changes to the way the law now views the concept of a family and the history of law reform in this area.
