Two major Dutch hospitals do not want to participate in a discussion with the House of Representatives about transgender care for young people. Amsterdam UMC and Radboudumc fear that the meeting will lead to increased polarization. They wrote this in a confidential email to the House Committee on Public Health, which has been seen by De Telegraaf. Several Members of Parliament have reacted critically to the cancellations.
