Question to the Department for Education:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they will publish the new transgender strategy as agreed to in the government response to recommendation 1 of the House of Commons Women and Equalities Committee 2016 Report <i>Transgender Equality</i> HC390.

In our response to the Committee in July 2016, the Government committed to a range of actions designed to improve the lives and experiences of transgender people.

This included a commitment to publish an update of the LGB&T Action Plan and the Transgender Action Plan and to publish a new plan on transgender equality.

We will provide an update on the Government’s progress in 2017.
