<p>The government believes that the protection of single-sex spaces, as provided for
in the Equality Act, is important. The Act makes clear that providers have the right
to restrict the use of spaces on the basis of sex, and exclude transgender people,
with or without a Gender Recognition Certificate, if this is justified.</p><p>At this
stage, we are not proposing further legislative guidance but we will keep this under
review. The Equality and Human Rights Commission is independent of the government
and makes its own decisions in relation to drafting the guidance that it creates and
publishes.</p>
