終院要求確立同性關係框架 政府：正研究如何防濫用 團體：憂措施構歧視促展諮詢
The Court of Final Appeal ruled last year in Jimmy Sham’s same-sex marriage case that the Hong Kong government must establish an alternative framework for recognising same-sex partner relationships within two years from October 27 last year. More than six months later, Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Erick Tsang said today that the issue was complex and that the government was conducting studies in accordance with the court’s judgment and timetable, including the eligibility threshold for recognition and ways to prevent abuse. Sexual minority groups expressed concern that the government had still not provided a legislative timetable and feared that measures to “prevent abuse” could effectively constitute discrimination.
終審法院去年就岑子杰同婚案作出裁決，要求港府在去年 10 月 27 日起計兩年內，確立同性伴侶關係替代框架。事隔逾半年，政制及內地事務局局長曾國衞今日稱有關議題複雜，正按法庭的判決及時間表進行研究，包括是承認門檻、如何防止濫用等。有性小眾團體對政府仍未交代立法時間表感到憂慮，亦擔心「防止濫用」措施會變相構成歧視。

跨性別人士更換身份證性別全停 入境處：正因應終院裁決檢視政策
Two transgender men, the anonymous person codenamed Q and Tse Henry EdwardHenry, won a case at the Court of Final Appeal last month, ruling that people who have not completed full sex-reassignment surgery may also change the sex marker on their identity cards. The Immigration Department has not yet announced how it will update its policy. Recently, when transgender men who had completed the full surgery applied, staff said all applications had to be suspended until the department completed its review of the relevant requirements. Transgender people can only wait in silence. A group criticised the department’s “one-size-fits-all” approach as highly unreasonable and inconsistent with the principles of the Court of Final Appeal’s judgment. The Immigration Department told The Independent Media that it was reviewing the existing policy in accordance with the ruling and seeking to complete the process within a reasonable time.
兩名「跨仔」（跨性別男性）代號Q的匿名人士及謝浩霖Henry更改身份證性別一案，上月在終審法院勝訴，未完成完整性別重置手術者也可更改身份證性別，不過入境處暫未公布如何更新政策。近日有已完成整套手術的「跨仔」入紙申請時，職員指所有申請均需暫停，直至入境處完成審視相關規定。一眾跨性別人士只能默默等待，有團體批評處方「一刀切」做法極不合理，亦與終院判決原則不符。入境處回覆《獨媒》表示，正根據終院裁決檢視現行政策，力求在合理時間內完成。
