The British government would publish an action plan for the lives and rights of lesbians, gays, bisexual and transgender individuals. The action plan will be published after the largest survey in the world. British Prime Minister Theresa May informed the cabinet regarding the findings of the survey in which more than 108,000 people took part and showed that a lot needed to be done so that no one felt the need to conceal their identity.

The survey was presented to the cabinet and the campaigners asked May to compensate up to 20,000 gay men who were charged on grounds of sexual behavior which was no longer a crime. In England, homosexuality was decriminalized in Whales and England in 1967 but it continued to remain an offense if one was associated with the armed forces till 1991. Around 100,000 individuals were accused of consenting adult same-sex behavior following the outlawing in 1885 of all homosexual acts. Around 15,000 men were convicted after the legalization of Sexual Offences Act in 1967.

May told the senior ministers that the country could be proud of being a leader in advancing the rights of the LGBT community. Mr. Tatchell stated that around 10-20,000 homosexual men still alive in the country deserved an apology and should be compensated for the charges levied on them before the law got repealed.
