Sunak and Tories to Amend Equality Act to Define 'Biological Sex'
Jun 2, 2024, 09:30 PM
The Conservative Party has announced plans to amend the Equality Act, redefining the protected characteristic of 'sex' to explicitly mean 'biological sex'. This move is intended to protect women’s spaces and services, preventing 'biological males' from participating in them. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has emphasized the importance of this change, which will be included in the Tory manifesto. The proposal aims to address concerns about the abuse of gender laws by predators and ensure clarity in the legal definition of sex.
