LTB 488/20 – CWU Statement in Response to Gender Recognition Act (GRA) Reforms
No. 488/2020
6th October 2020
TO: ALL BRANCHES
Dear Colleagues,
CWU Statement in Response to Gender Recognition Act (GRA) Reforms
The CWU is releasing this statement in response to the recent Government announcement on the
GRA reforms to reaffirm its position of support for our trans members and the wider trans
community. The Tory Government has waited two years to declare its position in response to the
GRA reform consultation and to announce that it is not doing anything legally to support the trans
community is deeply disappointing.
We are absolutely clear in our policies that reform of the GRA is vitally important and the trans
community must be supported through this process – the current process remains outdated,
invasive and disrespectful to the trans community.
Any queries on this LTB should be directed to Equality&Education@cwu.org
Yours sincerely,
Kate Hudson
Head of Equality, Education & Development
