House of Lords written question – answered at on 12 October 2011.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what impact the reduced resources and the restructuring of the Equality and Human Rights Commission will have on the implementation of the provisions of the Equality Act 2010; and what assessments have been made about the inequalities gap in the United Kingdom.
On
We are confident that a smaller, better focused commission will be able to fulfil its statutory duties in relation to the Equality Act 2010 more effectively.
The commission published its first report on progress towards a fairer society, How Fair is Britain, in October 2010. It is required under the Equality Act 2006 to publish its next report by October 2013.
