Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that NHS adult gender clinics maintain comprehensive patient data and outcomes records.

On 18 December 2025, NHS England published the Review into the operation and delivery of NHS Adult Gender Dysphoria Clinics, which was chaired by Dr David Levy. This review provides a strong basis for action to improve adult gender services.

Recommendation 13 of the review states that NHS England should work with adult gender dysphoria clinics (GDCs) to establish a national minimum dataset so medium and long-term patient outcomes can be understood following treatment by the adult GDCs, and to develop a national research strategy for adult gender dysphoria services.

NHS England, in full partnership with the Department, will now take forward the implementation of the review’s recommendations.
