Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 June 2026

Debate

For Women Scotland Ltd v Scottish Ministers

Contribution

My Lords, alongside other faith leaders, I am increasingly coming across trans people—men and women, often young and quite fragile—who are increasingly frightened. They are frightened about participating in public life and about being challenged. Some are even frightened about going to the doctor. What assessment have His Majesty’s Government made of the mental health of trans people, and how will they support them with these changes?
