Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department plans to update guidance to public bodies on the lawful provision of single-sex services for biological women.

Along with all other public sector organisations, we are considering what the implications for the Home Office and policing will be of the Supreme Court ruling. It is important that our next steps are properly considered and aligned with legal advice and the Statutory Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations, which the Equality and Human Rights Commission is updating.
