Notes the Welsh Government will continue to develop the transgender guidance for schools taking account of the Cass review and stakeholder views.

That looks to me like they haven't exactly rejected it but want to appease the 'stakeholders'.

Yes, reading it more carefully that's exactly what they've done. Safe in the knowledge that no children will actually be given PBs, they can blame NHS England while avoiding the question.

Politicians.

'Instead, an amendment was tabled by the Welsh Government to propose that the Senedd:

  1. Notes the publication of the Cass review.
  1. Notes that NHS Wales commissions gender identity services for children and young people 17 and under from NHS England.
  1. Notes that NHS England has concluded there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of puberty suppressing hormones for the treatment of gender dysphoria in children and young people at this time.
  1. Notes the Welsh Government will continue to develop the transgender guidance for schools taking account of the Cass review and stakeholder views.

This motion was passed with all 52 MSs voting in favour of it.'

You really need to read the whole news report. The motion which was adopted does accept the findings in practice, as I read it.

So, they are going against child safeguarding and will not be taking a cautious approach to ensure vulnerable children are protected.

Seems reasonable 🙄
