Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what recent progress the Government has made on bringing forward legislative proposals to ban conversion therapy; and what his timetable is for the publication of the Government response to the consultation entitled Banning conversion therapy which closed in February 2022.

We will give careful consideration to our public consultation on the issue and respond in due course. In the meantime, we have launched a support service open to all victims or those at risk of conversion practices regardless of their background or circumstances.
