Health secretary Wes Streeting has insisted the government's approach to trans youth healthcare is based on the "highest standards of ethics" despite concerns over the impact on young people. The Ilford North MP, 42, argued that the government is committed to an "evidence-based approach" to gender-affirming care for trans and non-binary young people. Responding to questions on the upcoming NHS puberty blocker trial during a Commons debate on Wednesday (17 December), Streeting insisted he was following "clinical advice" in his decision-making.
