The research is an ethically approved study being carried out by the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust since 2011, which is the largest provider of services for the alleviation of gender dysphoria in the United Kingdom.<\/p>
The study will evaluate early pubertal suppression in a carefully selected group of adolescents with a clinical diagnosis of gender dysphoria. There are 44 young people taking part in the study.<\/p>
The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust has plans to publish the data on the blocker and cross-sex hormones, for those who were appropriate for this, as<\/ins> Income from the Victim Surcharge contributes to the Ministry of Justices\u2019 Victim and Witness Budget (\u201cthe Budget\u201d). This budget is used to fund Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) who commission local support services for victims, and nationally commissioned support services including the National Homicide Service, Rape Support Centres, and the Court Based Witness Service. Income from the Victim Surcharge is forecast into the Budget at the beginning of each financial year. However, actual income raised from the Surcharge will fluctuate each year (depending on the amount imposed and collection rates).
