The Women and Equalities minister, Bridget Phillipson, has, according to the Times, told the equality regulator it must “tone down” its guidance on single-sex spaces, before it can be presented to Parliament. A source tells the paper it was felt the approach had been to exclude transgender people, instead of finding ways of being inclusive under the law. Other sources, close to Phillipson, dispute the claim and say they requested “clarity” and for the code to be accessible and robust.
