Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what progress the NHS England has made on implementing recommendation 31 of the Cass review to ensure that professional bodies come together to provide leadership and guidance on the clinical management of the population seeking support through gender clinics.

This recommendation has been actioned by NHS England by ensuring that there is senior representation on all the committees and working groups that have a role in delivery of the Cass Review recommendations. For example, NHS England has commissioned the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges to design the new education and training framework for clinicians working in NHS Children and Young People's Gender Services, with an expert steering group that includes representatives from twelve royal colleges and other professional bodies.
