Answer
This Government’s position is that conversion practices are abuse. Such practices have no place in society and must be stopped. In the King’s Speech, the Government committed to bring forward a full, trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices.
Previous administrations failed to deliver on this issue and allowed the debate to become ever more toxic and divided.
We are committed to bringing forward legislation to finally ban these abusive practices, starting with publishing our draft Bill later this session.
