Conversion therapy ban to be delayed
From Christian Today:
There are media reports that government plans to ban so-called conversion therapy are being delayed.
ITV News reports that equalities minister Kemi Badenoch has paused work on the ban since taking over her new post. She reportedly wants to review the plans.
A committee of MPs and Lords was expected to scrutinise a bill in the spring.
The Conservative government first promised to ban conversion therapy four years ago under former prime minister Theresa May.
In his time as prime minister, Boris Johnson promised evangelicals that the ban would not include prayer or other forms of pastoral support in churches…
…There is also a growing movement of ex-LGBT people, including many Christians, who say they were helped by therapy…Liam Hayden, of X-Outloud, said at a conference earlier this year that it was therapy that helped him break free from unwanted same-sex attraction.
