HC Deb 11 February 1970 vol 795 c364W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services on what authority he allowed an individual, whose name has been sent to him, born and registered as a boy on 29th April, 1935, to be registered as a female and to pay National Insurance contributions at the female rate.

Mr. Ennals

It is the practice of my Department to consider any such case in the light of all the circumstances, including the medical advice available.
