MSPs from all parties had backed the Gender Recognition Reform Bill in December last year, with the legislation introduced to simplify and speed up the process for trans people to obtain legal recognition in their preferred gender. Ministers in Edinburgh and London are awaiting a ruling from Scotland’s highest civil court on whether Mr Jack’s move was lawful.He said he would not comment on the case itself, adding: “Whatever way that judgment goes, and if it goes adversely against us, then I will explore all options”.
