"Sovereign status" - there's a new term. AFAIK it is not a term recognised in English Law
It's Strasbourg speak because they are talking about / taking account of legal status which can have variance between member states.
so its something not recognised in English Law?
Strasbourg speak is a totally meaningless phrase. So what if Pierre in the cafe tabac in Strasbourg talks about it, it does not make it part of English Law
There's no such thing as English law in this context. England is not a country recognised at the UN. Our country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Read my explanation in the context of the post.
The forum is mostly people from within the UK. The rights in question pertain to the Republic of Ireland. They are a sovereign nation with their own constitution and legal system. We can not therefore apply UK law to the case. We can however apply Strasbourg since it is the court of final remedy to both the UK and the Republic of Ireland under convention rights. Conversationally, 'sovereign status' is the simplest term which can use when speaking of rights across member states.
Learn to read, and learn chronology ...You are making things up now
There is English law and has been so for in hundreds of years
English Law is seperate from Scottish Law and both a seperate from Northern Irish Law.
You are spouting nonsense. There is no such thing in English Law as Sovereign Status. I invite you to provide any law report relating to England that confirms Soverign Status applies to individuals
There's no such thing as English law in this context.
Workplace Exemption Controversy
Separately, Phillipson recently clarified that the updated EHRC code of practice on single-sex spaces does not apply to workplaces. She noted that existing workplace guidance, which allows trans women with a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC) to use female toilets, remains in force.

That link isn't about the code of practice.
The code isn't the law. The law is the law. Companies that fail to provide adequate single sex facilities for staff will leave themselves open to claims of indirect discrimination from staff who do not, for example, wish to undress in front of men who pretend to be women.
