Disability and Ethnic Groups: Equality

Question

The King’s Speech set out our intention to publish the draft Equality (Race and Disability) Bill during the first session.

The Bill will deliver our manifesto commitments to introduce mandatory pay gap reporting for large employers on ethnicity and disability, and extend the right to make equal pay claims to ethnic minority and disabled people. We intend to consult on these measures before we publish the Bill and will announce our plans in due course.
