Question

Gender-neutral toilets

Do you agree that it is an important public health and equalities issue that gender-neutral toilets in London are preserved and improved, alongside the provision of any new facilities?

Answer

Date: Monday 12 July 2021

Andrew Boff AM (Chairman):  Before I ask the clock to start on the next question, you have 26 seconds for the Mayor to reply and a follow‑up. 

Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London):  I will give you a very short answer.  Public toilets are a vital provision for everyone and increased provision across London is key to making sure all Londoners can move around with dignity. 

Caroline Russell AM:  Thank you.  It is really important for London to be a trans, non‑binary and parent‑friendly city so I welcome your support for that. 

Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London):  A good example, Chair, of us working closely together and a continuation of the love‑in that you are welcome to join, Chair, at any time.
