tabling member printed	Lord Truscott
uin	HL1200
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/07/2017 answer text <p>The public deserves to know how its licence fee is being spent, which is why the government required the BBC to publish the salary details of all BBC staff and talent paid over £150,000. This was published for the first time as part of the BBC 2016/17 annual report. The BBC is operationally and editorially independent from government, and the amount it pays its staff and talent is a matter for them. It is for licence fee payers to determine whether the BBC is value for money.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 26/07/2017 13:18:17 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde

Following the EHRC’s call for evidence from Premier League clubs to assess their adherence to the terms of the Equality Act, if the EHRC suspect or believe that individual clubs are in breach of the Act 2010, they will consider the use of their statutory powers in order to achieve compliance. All clubs failing to meet the minimum requirements will have until September 2017 to publish their plan of action and timetable for improvement or face an investigation. We will support the EHRC in any action that they take against clubs and sports that are not fulfilling their legal duties towards disabled spectators.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong><br> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 31/07/2017 13:55:10 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
