Background
Dr Jane Playdon and retired (2010) MP Lynne Jones set up the original Parliamentary Forum on Transsexualism in 1994 to establish equality in health care and work through legal reform for the protection of trans people in the UK.
The recent Supreme Court ruling on defining sex as biological sex will change that legal reform secured from 1994.
We now again call on Parliament to reconvene this forum to work through the implications of this ruling and develop a mutual way forward.
