<p>Findings from the National LGBT Survey 2017, which had responses from over 108,000
LGBT people in the UK, found that men were generally slightly more likely to have
undergone or been offered conversion therapy (8%) than women (6%). Black/African/Caribbean/black
British (13%) and Asian/Asian British (14%) respondents, and respondents belonging
to an ‘other’ ethnic group (15%), were more likely than white (7%) respondents to
have undergone or been offered conversion therapy.</p><p>Our consultation on banning
conversion therapy, which closed on 4 February, collected data on the sex and ethnicity
of respondents, along with other demographics. This data will be considered as part
of our analysis of consultation results. We have no current plans to undertake any
additional research however, alongside the consultation, officials and Ministers continue
to engage with a wide range of stakeholders to ensure all perspectives are heard.</p>
