Must Read

THE High Court has struck down the ACT’s same-sex marriage laws.

The court unanimously ruled that the ACT’s Marriage Equality (Same Sex) Act 2013 could not operate concurrently with the federal Marriage Act 1961.

This means that the marriages of nearly 30 couples who have wed in Canberra since Saturday will not be upheld.
