Scottish Conservative justice spokesman Russell Findlay asked Justice Secretary Keith Brown at the Scottish Parliament: “Yesterday a double rapist was sent into a women’s prison … this scenario was exactly what I tried to stop during the passage of Nicola Sturgeon’s Gender Recognition Reform Bill but I was voted down by the narrowest of margins.
“With the flawed Bill in limbo, violent criminals are exploiting the system and putting women at risk, so can the Cabinet Secretary tell me why does the SNP government think that any rapist should be allowed inside a women’s prison?
Mr Brown replied: “Of course the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, had it not been stopped by another government, completely wrongly, would not have changed the Scottish Prison Service’s approach to trans prisoners, which is not dependent on possession of a GRC (gender recognition certificate).”
He said the SPS’s approach will continue to be based on the “assessment of risk”, unlike in England and Wales where it is determined by a GRC.
Mr Findlay called on the Scottish Government to “direct the SPS to block this rapist and any others from women’s prisons”.
Mr Brown said he trusts the SPS to decide on the appropriate venue for trans prisoners.
