00:00New guidance on single-sex spaces has come into force. The guidance says toilets, changing
00:06rooms and similar facilities should generally be organised according to biological sex.
00:12The Equality and Human Rights Commission says the code explains how organisations should
00:17apply equality law following last year's Supreme Court ruling. It also says gender-neutral
00:24facilities can help meet the needs of transgender people in some settings.
00:28Trans rights campaigners have argued that the guidance will make life harder for trans
00:34people, while groups supporting sex-based rights say it provides clarity. Legal challenges
00:40over how the guidance is applied are widely expected.
