Abstract
The article focuses on whether a de facto relationship exists. It discusses the court decisions wherein the substitue decision-makers were allowed by the court to agitate family law matters, such the case McKenzie & McKenzie wherein the Federal Circuit Court in Brisbane considered a divorce application initiated by the wife's mother. It also outlines the new guidelines introduced by the Attorney-General to simplify the procedure for sex or gender change or establishment.
