US EditionFor Women Scotland launches legal action against Scottish ministers on gender
For Women Scotland challenges Scottish Government policies on transgender pupils and custody, citing a UK Supreme Court ruling defining woman and sex as biological, in legal action underway.
- On April 16, 2025, For Women Scotland initiated legal proceedings in the Court of Session to challenge policies concerning transgender pupils and individuals in custody within Scotland.
- This legal action followed the UK Supreme Court ruling in April 2025 that defined 'woman' and 'sex' in the Equality Act 2010 as biological terms.
- For Women Scotland argued that Scottish Government policies inconsistent with this ruling remain in place and harm vulnerable women and girls.
- The group expressed that despite their efforts, the government has not changed course, and the existing policies continue to harm vulnerable women and girls.
- The new legal challenge may prompt changes to the disputed policies, while the Scottish Government declined to comment on ongoing court proceedings.
