The headline is misleading. Per the article: "...NHS England has set out how it will limit the use of puberty blockers and ban activists and teachers from referring children for treatment... it has set a minimum age of seven for referral to the gender identity clinics." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/08/04/children-aged-seven-nhs-transgender-treatment/
