Question regarding UK ban on puberty blockers

The UK has passed a [temporary ban ](https://www.rpharms.com/about-us/news/details/new-restrictions-on-the-prescription-and-supply-of-puberty-blockers)on new prescriptions for puberty blockers for people under 18.

1. Does anyone know what happens after the temporary ban expires in September? For some reason none of the reporting I've come across explains this. Is the idea that government is establishing research studies, and that after September, youths will be able to access blockers as part of those trials? 2. Has the UK banned gender affirming hormone therapies? In his recent silly tweets, Michael Hobbes crudely summarizes the weak evidence showing psychological benefits from gender affirming therapies, and complains that, in light of this preliminary evidence, we shouldn't be \*restricting by law\* gender affirming hormone therapies. But to my knowledge the UK has *not* restricted these therapies; it has only banned puberty blockers (and this, only temporarily).


Thanks for any clarification you can provide.
