- Marriage_Equality_(Same_Sex)_Act_2013 abstract "The Marriage Equality (Same Sex) Act 2013 was an act of parliament of the Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly that legalised same-sex marriage in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). It was first presented to the ACT Legislative Assembly on 19 September 2013 by the ACT Attorney-General, Simon Corbell. The act was passed in the Legislative Assembly on 22 October 2013. It came into operation on 7 November 2013, although it did not permit same-sex marriage ceremonies to occur until 7 December.In the first minutes of 7 December, in Canberra, Alan Wright and Joel Player became the first same-sex couple to marry on Australian soil; other same-sex weddings, both of men and of women, took place in Canberra soon afterwards and on the following day. As soon as the act was passed, a challenge by the federal government was lodged in the High Court of Australia. The case was heard on 3 December and, giving judgment on 12 December, the High Court unanimously struck the act down; the ceremonies that had taken place had therefore been void. But the Court also confirmed that the federal parliament has power to legislate for same-sex marriage.".

- Marriage_Equality_(Same_Sex)_Act_2013 quote ""The [Commonwealth] Marriage Act simply does not permit of the possibility that a State or Territory might clothe with the legal status of marriage a union of these kinds. It leaves no room for a State or Territory legislature to create a status of 'bigamous marriage', 'polygamous marriage', 'arranged involuntary marriage' or 'trial marriage'. Similarly, within and by reason of the schema of the Marriage Act, couples who are not man and woman are and must remain for the purposes of Australian law 'unmarried' persons. They remain on that side of the binary divide."".
