Scottish Green party urges Scottish Government to implement a ban on conversion therapy, fearing UK-wide legislation delay.

The Scottish Green party urges the Scottish Government to implement a ban on conversion therapy, expressing concern that it might be delayed due to the UK-wide legislation. Party's equalities spokeswoman, Maggie Chapman, calls for a "watertight" ban as soon as possible. The UK government's commitment to introduce draft legislation in England and Wales raises fears that Scottish ministers may postpone their own legislation.
