"A Landmark Ruling!" | Supreme Court Rules: ‘Woman’ In Equality Law Refers To Biological Sex
The terms “woman” and “sex” in the Equality Act refer to a biological woman and biological sex, the Supreme Court has ruled.
Campaign group For Women Scotland (FWS) brought a series of challenges – including to the UK’s highest court – over the definition of “woman” in Scottish legislation mandating 50% female representation on public boards.
The dispute centres on whether someone with a gender recognition certificate (GRC) recognising their gender as female should be treated as a woman under the UK 2010 Equality Act.
Talk’s Julia Hartley-Brewer says: “A victory for common sense!”
