The New Zealand Olympic Committee has stated it will apply the new International Olympic Committee (IOC) gender policy with "respect and care". New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard, who competed in a gender category different from that of her birth, will no longer be eligible for the Tokyo Olympics. The policy was developed to address the need for greater clarity, consistency and fairness for the female category in elite sport. However, Australian LGBT sports rights group Pride Cup has urged national sports federations to reject the policy, stating it shifts the focus of women's sport to exclusion. The French Olympic Committee also expressed concerns about the legality of the SRY tests, which would be illegal in France due to its strict bioethics law on genetic testing.
