Pony Partnerships: Transgender People
The question
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what guidance her department can give Pony Partnerships CIC (a Derbyshire-based Community Interest Company providing equine-facilitated therapeutic, learning and enrichment services for children, young people, families and adults) to remain inclusive and accessible to the transgender community, while continuing to meet their safeguarding, equality, health and safety, and professional obligations following the issuing of the draft EHRC code.
Answered by Women and Equalities
The Equality and Human Rights Commission’s Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations provides guidance for duty bearers on how to comply with the law as it stands.
However, the Code cannot include examples that cover every possible scenario. If duty bearers are unsure about how to apply the Code’s guidance given their individual circumstances, they should seek specialist legal advice.
