'Absolutely' possible UK Government could ignore GRA reforms, reports say

THE UK Government may not recognise gender recognition reforms (GRR) if they pass through Holyrood, according to reports.

A BBC government source has claimed it is “absolutely” possible that gender recognition certificates administered under proposals currently making their way through Holyrood will not be recognised by other parts of the UK.

The changes aim to shorten the time it takes to receive a gender recognition certificate, lower the age to get one from 18 to 16 and remove the requirement of a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria.
