A friend says that the Cambridge college where she is a fellow is looking at converting some of the loos to gender neutral - only the ones without urinals, apparently, so just the women's loos Hmm She's not happy about this and would like to know what the legal position is on the configuration of 'gender neutral' loos: cubicle walls and doors have to be floor to ceiling, I think, but not sure about anything else. Could someone point me in the right direction for the info?

"separate rooms containing conveniences are provided for men and women except where and so far as each convenience is in a separate room the door of which is capable of being secured from inside."

Someone else will probably be able to direct you to more pertinent info than me but get her to watch this as a palate cleanser for the issue.
