SCOTTISH LGBT campaigners have welcomed a “game-changer” report which backs a ban on conversion practices and ruled out any religious loopholes.
The Scottish Government’s expert advisory group published their findings on conversion practices, sometimes referred to as “therapy”, on Tuesday October 4.
Campaigners say that the practices cause a severe impact on mental health and that 7% of LGB people, 13% of trans people and 10% of asexual people had been subjected to or offered such practices in the UK.
