uin	246970
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/04/2019 answer text <p>The Government takes the issue of gender inequalities very seriously. I have carefully noted the points made about the current system of hereditary peerage in the context of the Hereditary Titles (Female Succession) Bill. However, this issue is complex and is linked with several equally complex issues, including the system of courtesy titles.</p><p>Under the current arrangements, the Equality Act 2010 provides that neither a life peerage nor a hereditary peerage (as an honour conferred by the Crown), is a public or personal office for the purposes of the Act. This exemption means the rules surrounding the by-elections of hereditary peers is ultimately a matter for the House of Lords in regulating its own affairs.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 30/04/2019 13:58:50 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
