#gra2004 — Public Fediverse posts

Note: the 500-character limit squeezed out some caveats I would like to add.

Most importantly, I commented on the new #PoliceScotland procedures _as reported_ by #PinkNews. The report may have been written by someone who is not familiar with the #GRA2004.

So the new #PoliceScotland system may be designed to accommodate the GRA. But if it respects the GRA, then I would expect the police to proudly trumpet that fact.

Maybe someone can ask ScottishTrans to follow up.

#PoliceScotland's new policy as reported here is illegal, because it takes no account of a #GenderRecognitionCertificate (#GRC).

The atrocious #UKSC decision in #FWS allows a GRC to be disregarded for purposes of the #EA2010. But it doesn't override a GRC for other purposes.

#GRA2004 §22 still applies: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2004/7/section/22

Disclosing info relating to a GRC is a criminal offence. The police focus on "BiologicalSex" risks routine illegal disclosure. I hope #trans are ready to sue
