Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, further to the answer of 7 January 2025, to Question 21052, on Gender: public consultation, if she will place the 404 responses in the Library, redacting the names of individuals.

When the call for input on single-sex spaces guidance was commissioned, the previous Government did not seek consent from organisations to publish the responses. Consequently, we will not be placing the responses in the Library.

We shared all the submissions that met the criteria of the call for input with the independent EHRC. The EHRC have since concluded their regulatory action, which can be read about here: https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/media-centre/ehrc-concludes-regulatory-action-single-sex-space-policies.
