DISRUPTIVE tactics from Tory MSPs forced the final stage of Holyrood’s Gender Reform Bill into a third day.
At time of publication, MSPs were still going over last minute changes to the reforms, which aim to simplify the process to obtain a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC).
MSPs were in the chamber until 12.15am on Wednesday morning before proceedings were stopped, after Tory politicians called numerous points of order and forced each amendment to go to a vote, even when the proposer had declined to move it themselves. At one point, lights automatically turned off in the Chamber.
