answer text <p>The Government is taking account of the recently published final report from the independent Cass Review.</p><p> </p><p>As the Cass Review has shown, challenges of legislating in this area are considerable, and there is significant risk of oversimplifying complex and nuanced issues. We cannot risk unintended consequences for parents, teachers, religious leaders or for clinicians providing crucial and legitimate support to young people experiencing gender distress.</p> more like this

answer text <p>This Government remains committed to protecting everyone from abhorrent and harmful conversion practices, including transgender people. The challenges of legislating in this area are considerable, and it is right and proper that this Government puts the draft Bill forward for pre-legislative scrutiny, as a further safeguard against unintended consequences.</p><p>Our draft Bill is being finalised. The Government expects to deliver a draft Bill that takes account of the independent Cass review, which is itself expected shortly.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government remains absolutely committed to taking action to tackle abhorrent conversion 'therapy' practices. These acts are aimed at changing someone else's identity, whether that be to or from being LGBT, and have no place in UK society.</p><p>Equality Ministers and officials have been carefully considering the issue, including all of the responses we received to our public consultation. This is to ensure any action we take is robust, measured and avoids any unintended consequences on parents, clinicians, teachers or religious groups.</p><p>A draft Bill setting out our approach will be published for pre-legislative scrutiny by a joint Committee of both Houses in the new year, alongside the Government’s response to the consultation.</p> more like this
