Exclusive: Charities and service providers say six-week timetable is too rushed in letter to equalities watchdog
More than 20 leading charities and service providers have urged the equalities watchdog to extend a consultation to devise guidance on the landmark supreme court ruling about gender, saying the current timetable is too rushed for proper engagement.
In a letter seen by the Guardian, organisations including Refuge, the UK’s largest charity for women affected by domestic abuse, and the mental health charity Mind, say the six-week consultation risked creating “rushed” guidance.
