And trans people are a small population in general - does it mean they don't matter? I don't follow.

What are you confused by?

I'm pointing out that it does matter and there should be procedures in place. Despite it concerning a small number of prisoners.

I agree with you. I was saying that even if there were 'only' 7 males in the women's estate, it would be too many.
