The Welsh government's ban on puberty blockers for trans youth is under scrutiny as former Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price calls it unlawful. The NHS Wales pause on treatment followed the controversial Cass Review, which recommended caution in prescribing hormones for young people. Critics argue that the ban bypassed necessary impact assessments that could affect vulnerable youth. The decision has faced backlash from organizations like the British Medical Association, highlighting concerns over the report's methodologies and its implications for understanding transgender healthcare needs.
I think it is clear that the government have acted unlawfully by imposing a ban on puberty blockers without assessing its impact on trans youth.
The Cass Review has faced scrutiny from various organizations for allegedly ignoring evidence concerning the use of puberty blockers.
