YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Supreme Court has ruled that 'woman' refers to biological sex under equality laws.
"Woman" and "sex" refer to a biological woman and biological sex in the Equality Act 2010, Lord Hodge has said.
The Supreme Court ruling follows a series of challenges brought by For Women Scotland (FWS), a women's rights campaign group, over the definition of "woman" in Scottish legislation mandating 50% female representation on public boards.
The dispute centres on whether or not somebody with a gender recognition certificate recognising their gender as female should be treated as a woman under the 2010 Equality Act.
The day of the ruling, MP Rosie Duffield joins Tom Swarbrick to discuss the news.
