The RCGP collects data on 'sex' and ‘gender reassignment’ which are protected characteristics outlined in the Equality Act 2010. However, member declaration for this is notably low. Consequently, we must consider any presented data to be relatively unreliable and unrepresentative. As 'gender identity' has been a mandatory field for most members, we have a near-100% declaration rate. While we acknowledge that 'gender identity', ‘sex' and ‘gender reassignment’ are distinctly not the same, we have opted to report on gender identity due to the reliability and representativeness of this data. Going forward, there will be a focus on developing our data capture and declaration rate in this area and others, to achieve further clarity and representative reporting.
