The government must implement the EHRC Code of Practice in such a way that it guarantees trans+ people safe access to essential services, as any gap in equality protection undermines their right to a dignified life.

Every gap in equality protection rights for trans+ people undermines their ability to lead a fulfilling and dignified life here in the United Kingdom. Stonewall will not accept that.

The text reports that the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) Code of Practice on services, public functions and associations has passed 40 days in Parliament without successful challenge. Stonewall and other actors have expressed serious concerns about the guidance in the Code during this time. The government has taken no action in the 40 days, and the Secretary of State can now decide when the revised Code will be brought into force. Access to essential services for trans+ people is described as insecure. Stonewall describes the situation as untenable and points out that gaps in equality protection undermine the ability of trans+ people to lead a fulfilling and dignified life. The organisation is working together with other LGBTQ+, trans+ led and human rights organisations on a clear vision and action plan for equality in the United Kingdom. The text implicitly calls for action and emphasises the urgency of the moment.
