The Government Property Agency (GPA) is taking a systematic, data-led approach to review and update toilet provision across the government estate that it manages. This work will ensure alignment with updated building regulations, the Supreme Court Judgement of April 2025 regarding biological sex, and the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s (EHRC) updated Code of practice for services, public functions and associations.
