Like the previous analysis, the percentages of respondents being refused State funding for AB<br />
surgeries is very high. We can see that the situation regarding access to State funding for surgery may<br />
be worsening, with 6% more respondents who transitioned less than 5 years ago being refused than<br />
those who transitioned more than 10 years ago. We can also see that across the income <strong>and</strong><br />
occupational spectrum, the difference in access to State funding for surgery is minimal.<br />
Refused Treatment<br />
The third question was concerned with being refused treatment because a healthcare<br />
practitioner did not approve of gender reassignment. The AB answer was ‘no’.<br />
