New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has declared biological differences between males and females must be reflected in state law, particularly in relation to prisons and women’s sport, despite recent changes to birth certificate legislation.

Minns said the government recognised legal reforms for transgender people but maintained that certain policy areas required distinctions based on sex.
