Further details on the plans to reform the Gender Recognition Act can be found in the Scottish Government document "A fairer, greener Scotland" gov.scot/publications/f… (on page 50) #PFG #PfG
"While the COVID 19 pandemic delayed our work to establish a more straightforward system for obtaining legal gender recognition, trans people should not have to go through a degrading, traumatic and intrusive process to be legally recognised in their gender."
"Within the next year we will bring forward the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, removing the current medical requirements and reducing the time that applicants for gender recognition need to have lived in their acquired gender from two years to three months."
"The changes will improve the lives of trans people, while ensuring the legislation doesn’t affect the rights and protections that women currently have under the Equality Act." #PFG #PfG
