South-West Trains [Elektronische Daten] [Catherine Barnard] In P v. S the Court of Justice sent out a strong message that it was keen to protect the rights of minorities. Ruling that the Equal Treatment Directive 76/207 applies to the gender reassignment of the person concerned, the Court gave protection to P, a male to female transsexual. To justify its decision the Court said "[to] tolerate such discrimination [against transsexuals] would be tantamount, as regards such a person, to a failure to respect the dignity and freedom to which he or she is entitled, and which the Court has a duty to safeguard”. Its genuine commitment to safeguarding such rights was put to the test in Grant, when faced by the claim of a lesbian for concessionary rail travel for her partner under Article 141 (Article 119) EC on equal pay.
