UK government plans to ban conversion therapy with the Draft Conversion Practices Bill.

The UK government has announced plans to ban conversion therapy as part of the King's Speech, fulfilling a commitment first made by Theresa May in 2018. The Draft Conversion Practices Bill aims to block actions that aim to "change, 'cure' or suppress" someone's sexuality or gender identity. However, the bill is only a draft at present, and the government has faced criticism for taking too long to implement a ban.
