Question
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what assessment the Government has made of the potential implications for its policies of the Supreme Court judgement in the case of For Women Scotland v The Scottish Ministers of 16 April 2025.
This question was answered on 8th May 2025
The Supreme Court’s ruling has brought clarity for women and single-sex service providers. The Equality and Human Rights Commission has already committed to supporting service providers with its updated statutory Code of Practice; the government will engage them as necessary as they progress this work. All government departments should follow the ruling.
