Gender reform Bill expected to pass at Scottish Parliament later today

MSPs are expected to pass controversial gender reforms in the Scottish Parliament later today after hours of delays.

Members of parliament have been debating legislation throughout this week with votes taking place on the 153 amendments to the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill.
