Has anyone else received the email from the EHRC with regards to their Launch of the new Strategic Plan 2022 – 25? They include a link to the response to the consultation on the plan which makes for very interesting reading. For example
"Compared with the consultation on our previous strategic plan (for 2019–22), this consultation received a higher proportion of responses that indicated that the protected characteristics of sex, sexual orientation and gender reassignment were important. Many of the open question answers included comments on tensions between the protected characteristics of sex and gender reassignment. " and
" In the 2022–25 consultation, 69% of respondents said sex was an important protected characteristic to their responses compared with 40% in 2019–22. For sexual orientation it was 42% in 2022–25 and 31% in 2019–22. For gender reassignment it was 32% in 2022–25 and 26% 2019–22."
I thought it made for very interesting reading. It is available to read on the web at EHRC
