If you are a new customer after 1 July 2009 and are in a same-sex de facto relationship you will be recognised as partnered when you apply for a payment or service

nope read on ...

If you are in a same-sex de facto relationship and receive a Centrelink payment or service, you are required to tell us from 1 July 2009. This will ensure that you continue to receive the correct payment. From 1 July 2009, if you are overpaid because you have not told us that you are in a same-sex relationship, you may have to pay back some or all of your payment.

From 30 March to 30 June 2009, you will be able to tell us that you are in a same-sex relationship. You may tell us in this period as it will reduce your risk of being overpaid. These changes will only affect payments from 1 July 2009.

It seems all warm and fuzzy, but it's Krudd's way of saving money as it's cheaper to pay for a couple than two singles.

^ WHS !!

as much as I am repulsed by the thought of two dudes going for it with each other, I dont have any problems with them trying to attain the same privileges/benefits/whatever as hetero couples...

what does annoy me is the flamboyantly over the top *beep*, plus the whole mardi gras/gay pride march crap... imagine if heteros tried something like that, there would be an absolute uproar!
