The Cass Review has published an interim report on its review, commissioned by NHS England in 2020, looking at the services provided by the NHS to children and young people who are questioning their gender identity or experiencing gender incongruence. The Cass Review has published an interim report on its review, commissioned by NHS England in 2020, looking at the services provided by the NHS to children and young people who are questioning their gender identity or experiencing gender incongruence.

The review finds that: the rapid increase in the number of children requiring support means that the current clinical model with a single national provider is not sustainable in the longer term; there is no consistent data collection, which means it is not possible to accurately track the outcomes and pathways that children and young people take through the service; and there is lack of consensus and open discussion about the nature of gender dysphoria and therefore about the appropriate clinical response.
