Sue Pascoe's parliamentary evidence:
"All my treatment was in line with Indian laws and regulations and safeguards, but it was also entirely in line with the World Health Organization’s standards of care for transgender patients, which is a synthesis of all the best practices around the world and is significantly different from the NHS guidelines.
I am very pleased with what happened and the reality is I had no choice. If I had had to wait for two and a half years to five years, I would not have made it. I know so many transgender people who, at one point in their lives, have attempted suicide. The figures are shocking: between 30% and 70%, dependent upon what other issues you face. I sit in a category that has a 70% suicide rate, so I am very pleased to be here. I did whatever it took to get my operation done in a timely basis to go forward with my life"
One is that, for the rest of my life, one of the things that I would really like to do is try to help other transgender people; I am in the process of establishing a charity called Gender Care UK to try to get donations to help pay for people’s operations and get past the pragmatic problems that we have in the NHS. I was looking for a platform to get some publicity and talk about transgender issues and Gender Care UK. I arranged a press release with a media consultant and ended up with press all over the world. I did not really like being called a “foxy lady” in the Sun; I quite liked being called a “dead ringer” for Caitlyn Jenner in the Mirror, but I took control of it. I approved the press release before it went out and, to date, everything that has happened around me has been hugely positive."
