To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Garden of Frognal on 10 March (HL5444), whether the Equality and Human Rights Commission has intervened and reported back to them on the Marks and Spencer discrimination matter.

The Equality and Human Rights commission is an independent body and is under no obligation to report back to government on specific cases. Any discussions between the EHRC and Marks and Spencer would be a matter to be dealt with between the parties.
