Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, pursuant to the Answer on 5 June 2020 to Question 52328 on Gay Conversion Therapy, when the research into the scope of practices and experiences of people subjected to conversion therapy was begun; when that research is expected to conclude; and if she will publish the findings.

In January 2019, the Government commissioned research to improve our understanding of evidence on the practice, experience, and effect of conversion therapy. We received a draft of the report on Friday 12th June 2020. Once we have reviewed the findings, we intend to publish the report.
