Joanne Cassar, the person at the heart of the controversy over whether trans-gender persons should be allowed to marry people of the opposite sex after gender reassignment surgery, this morning made a surprise call on Social Dialogue Minister Helena Dalli to thank her for launching amendments to the law.
The government and Ms Cassar recently reached an out-of-court settlement which ended a European Court case instituted by Cassar after she was stopped from marrying a man. A Bill for related changes to the law has also been presented.
