The amendment to the UK Data Bill could force "sex at birth" to be used over gender recognition documents in public databases.
This would potentially lead to the erasure of trans people's data and vital documents, such as medical records, resulting in the denial of important gender-based procedures.

Data has become an extension of our identity, our personality, our life.
Data protection rights allow you to assert your own interests and retain control over your life.
In the wake of the regressive UK Supreme Court ruling, this amendment to the UK Data Bill would further expose trans people to harms.
