Terms and disclaimer

What this site is

beyondgender.ie is a reference site on the Irish record concerning sex and gender identity, published by Genspect, The Steps, O'Connell Street, Birr, County Offaly. Using the site means accepting these terms.

Not advice

Nothing here is medical, psychological or legal advice. Irish law and Irish clinical practice change; a dossier records what the documents said on the date given. Anyone facing a decision should consult a solicitor, a general practitioner or a qualified therapist.

Facts and interpretation

Key facts, background and the summaries of documents are intended to be verifiable. Sections headed Interpretation set out this site's own reading and are opinion. The two are deliberately kept apart.

Corrections

If a date, figure or quotation is wrong, tell us through the contact page with the page and passage named. Errors are corrected promptly.

Copyright and quotation

The writing on this site belongs to Genspect and may be quoted briefly with attribution and a link.

Links

Outbound links to the Irish Statute Book, the HSE, the Oireachtas, the courts, genspect.org, stellaomalley.com and the other Beyond Gender sites are provided for reference; their content is not ours.

Liability and law

The site is provided as is, without warranty. To the extent permitted by law, Genspect accepts no liability for loss arising from its use. These terms are governed by Irish law and the Irish courts have exclusive jurisdiction.
