        (b)     the Registrar has not determined the application before that substitution.

    (2)     Subject to this section, despite the amendments made by the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Amendment Act 2019 , the application is to be determined in accordance with Part 4A of this Act as if that Part had not been amended by the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Amendment Act 2019 .

    (3)     Before the Registrar determines an application made under section 30A or 30E to which this section applies the Registrar may ask the applicant to nominate a sex descriptor.

    (4)     The Registrar may refuse to alter the record of the applicant's sex in the applicant's birth registration if the alteration would result in the recorded sex being a prohibited sex descriptor.

    (5)     The Registrar may refuse to issue a document acknowledging the name and sex of the applicant if that document would acknowledge a prohibited sex descriptor.
