First Minister John Swinney has been urged to apologise to women over the government's plan to reform gender recognition laws.
Scottish Conservative leader Russell Findlay attacked Swinney over a bill passed by MSPs in 2022 that would have made it easier for people to change their legally recognised sex.
That bill was blocked by the UK government and Findlay's comments came after the Supreme Court sided against Holyrood ministers in a ruling on the definition of a woman.
Social Justice Secretary Shirley-Anne Somerville said ministers were committed to protecting protecting women's and transgender rights.
The Supreme Court sided with campaign group For Women Scotland in ruling that the terms "woman" and "sex" in the 2010 Equality Act "refer to a biological woman and biological sex".
The ruling means people who are born male no longer have access to female-only facilities and services.
Swinney said he accepted the judgement.
