PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Equal Pay (20 February 2018)

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of the resources available to the Equality and Human Rights Commission to check gender pay gap data.

Asked by:
Alison McGovern (Labour)

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has an annual budget of £18.3m in 2018-19, and we expect it to be able to resource its existing commitments from its allocated budgets during the current Spending Review period. Decisions on allocation of resources within its overall budget are matters for the EHRC as an independent public body.
