Wasn't there some human right about privacy or something? They say these questions are voluntary - but that assumes you will be told such. Also, many government departments are now asking trans status.
Why.
@scottishtrans.bsky.socialAs of May 2026, Police Scotland now ask every person who reports or witnesses a crime for data about their “sex” and their “trans status”.
These questions are voluntary - you are not legally required to disclose your sex or your trans status to the police when reporting or witnessing a crime.
