Proceeding contribution from Lord Moynihan (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Gender Recognition (Approved Countries and Territories) Order 2011.


Gender Recognition (Approved Countries and Territories) Order 2011

Before the Minister concludes his remarks, I thank him for clarifying the position and emphasising the fact that governing bodies of sport would be entitled to exclude a male-to-female transsexual person if competitive parity of the safety of other competitors was at stake. I should have declared my interest as chairman of the British Olympic Association and apologise to the House for not having done so. Motion agreed.
