- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that NHS adult gender clinics maintain comprehensive patient data and outcomes records.
- Answer
-
On 18 December 2025, NHS England published the Review into the operation and delivery of NHS Adult Gender Dysphoria Clinics, which was chaired by Dr David Levy. This review provides a strong basis for action to improve adult gender services.
Recommendation 13 of the review states that NHS England should work with adult gender dysphoria clinics (GDCs) to establish a national minimum dataset so medium and long-term patient outcomes can be understood following treatment by the adult GDCs, and to develop a national research strategy for adult gender dysphoria services.
NHS England, in full partnership with the Department, will now take forward the implementation of the review’s recommendations.
