‘We don’t want to go back to court’, says women’s group over gender ruling delay

The group responsible for the landmark ruling on the definition of a woman said it may have to take the Scottish Government back to court if it does not speed up its implementation of the decision.

For Women Scotland (FWS) challenged the meaning of a woman in the Gender Representation on Public Boards (Scotland) Act, with the UK’s highest court ruling the definition in the 2010 Equality Act referred to biological sex.
