Conversion Therapy

Asked by Euan StainbankLabourWomen and EqualitiesTabled Answered 22 May 2025UIN 52751

The question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, when she plans to bring forward legislative proposals to provide for a fully trans-inclusive ban on conversion therapy.

Answered by Dame Nia Griffith

Conversion practices are abuse. Such practices have no place in society and must be stopped. As outlined in the King’s Speech, this Government is committed to bringing forward a full, trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices. We continue to work cross-government on this important issue with a view to publishing our draft Bill later this session.
