Ymateb gan Unigolyn | Evidence from Individual

What are your views on the general principles of the Bill and the need for legislation to deliver the Welsh Government’s stated policy objective (to make the Senedd a more effective legislature by ensuring it is broadly representative of the gender make-up of the population)?

It should be based on the biological sex of the population, not the moveable feast that is ‘gender’.

What are your views on the system of enforcement and potential sanctions for non-compliance proposed in the Bill?

Complaince should be based on evidence of the biological sex of the person. It is not acceptable that a person declaring that they are a particular gender is sufficient. Self Identifying as a gender different to their biological sex is not acceptable.

Are there any potential barriers to the implementation of the Bill’s provisions? If so, what are they, and are they adequately taken into account in the Bill and the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum and Regulatory Impact Assessment?

I believe the Llywydd has pointed out the problems of using a candidate’s self identified gender being in conflict with the current constitutional arrangements.

Are any unintended consequences likely to arise from the Bill?

Giving a legal basis for the ridiculous and delusional and dangerous and irrational concept of gender self identity.

What are your views on the Welsh Government’s assessment of the financial and other impacts of the Bill?

Get rid of the concept of ‘gender’ and ‘self identifying’ to stop men from taking women’s places to ensure biological women get a fair crack of the whip and rationality triumphs over delusional gender ideology.

What are your views on the balance between the information contained on the face of the Bill and what is left to subordinate legislation? Are the powers for Welsh Ministers to make subordinate legislation appropriate?

If the Welsh government continues to promote gender ideology then it should not be granted further powers to legislate. There is a dangerous lack of checks and balances in the present system.

Do you have any views on matters relating to the legislative competence of the Senedd including compatibility with the European Convention on Human Rights?

There is no human right to change sex.

Do you have any views on matters related to the quality of the legislation, or to the constitutional or other implications of the Bill?

It should respect the biological sex of people and ensure it takes precedence over any delusional ideas about ‘gender’.

Are there any other issues that you would like to raise about the Bill and the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum or any related matters?

No to gender self identity in Welsh law. The biological reality of sex should be enshrined in the Welsh constitution. Sex is binary and immutable, male and female.

Anything else?

Welsh government should stop promoting gender ideology.
