Press Coverage: For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers - UK Supreme Court
For Women Scotland (FWS) is a women’s rights campaign group that has been seeking clarification on the definitions of “sex” and “woman” through the Scottish courts since July 2020. The most recent case was an appeal of a ruling in a lower court to the Supreme Court on the definition of ‘woman’. The case was heard on 26 & 27 November 2024 - our coverage of the case is found here. The Supreme Court unanimously ruled on 16th April 2025 that a gender recognition certificate does not change a person's legal sex for the purposes of the Equality Act.
