Intersex and Transgender People: Facilities
- Question
-
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what steps the Government plans to take to ensure that all members of the Trans and Intersex communities have access to (a) safe and (b) gender affirming (i) bathrooms, (ii) changing rooms and (iii) refuges; and that when using those facilities they are free from harassment.
- Answer
-
Trans and intersex people deserve dignity and respect. Protections remain in place for them to live free from discrimination and harassment.
Regarding service provision, we want everyone to be able to access services that meet their needs whilst protecting their privacy and safety. The EHRC’s updated Code of Practice will provide guidance to providers, and we are considering their draft.
