To Women & Equalities Committee
We, the undersigned, write to express serious and urgent concerns about the actions of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) and the apparent unwillingness of the Women and Equalities Committee (WEC) to investigate them.
It is becoming increasingly clear that the EHRC is no longer operating as an impartial human rights body. Over the past several years, its leadership has shifted in a direction that appears ideologically driven, hostile to trans equality, and closely aligned with lobbying groups who advocate for the removal of legal protections for transgender people. These groups - including Sex Matters, Policy Exchange, and the LGB Alliance - have played a significant role in reshaping public discourse and influencing legal interpretations of the Equality Act 2010.
We are calling on the Women and Equalities Committee to launch an immediate and transparent inquiry into:
- The EHRC’s internal decision-making processes regarding the definition of “sex” under the Equality Act 2010;
- All communications, meetings, and correspondence between the EHRC and external lobbying organisations from 2020 to the present;
- The EHRC’s advice to government departments, ministers, and the courts—especially its role in shaping the outcome of For Women Scotland v The Lord Advocate [2024] UKSC 59.
As transgender people and allies, we are gravely concerned that this advice, and the EHRC’s developing policy stance have been influenced not by human rights or evidence, but by ideological lobbying and political convenience. We must understand who the EHRC has been speaking to, what was said, and why these decisions were made. Anything less is a dereliction of democratic oversight.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cusxj5mn22tulo2annoirqwx/bafkreicwaw5zpywuhuzr6axjhbgcyfxj4phau7olekneicwp47vjcmxrfy)
