Question
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, whether she had discussions with external organisations before laying the Gender Recognition (Approved Countries and Territories and Saving Provision) Order 2023.
Answered by Stuart Andrew - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)
We conducted thorough research in collaboration with the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office to verify our understanding of each overseas system in question, to then measure against the UK’s standard route to obtain gender recognition.
Any update to the list of approved countries and territories is a periodic administrative task that does not require formal public consultation. As per the requirements of the Act we have consulted with the Scottish Government and the Northern Ireland Executive.
