PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(2 June 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to issue further guidance to the NHS organisations on ending the recruitment of dedicated equality, diversity and inclusion staff.

Asked by:
Steve Barclay (Conservative)

Answer

National Health Service organisations should be working to address inequalities, in order to ensure the best possible outcomes for all patients, as well as tackling the abuse and discrimination that some NHS staff face in the workplace. Local NHS leaders are best placed to take an evidence-based approach to how they approach this challenge and resource this work.
