Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, when she plans to publish her response to her Department's call for evidence on Variations in sex characteristics, which closed on 28 March 2019.

Answer

It is important to understand the experiences of people living with VSC, as well as the impacts on their family and support networks. In order to understand these experiences, it is vital that research and first hand testimony be conducted and made widely available.

That is why the Government is currently monitoring and considering evidence and research specific to people living with VSC, including the evidence provided through the call for evidence. We hope to be in a position to publish the findings of the review in due course.
