	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2018 answer text <p>My Rt Hon Friend has not held any discussions with the Leader of the House on this matter. Where a Parliamentary assistant or researcher is engaged under a contract of employment, apprenticeship or contract personally to do work, the Member of Parliament, as their employer, is subject to the requirements of the Equality Act 2010, and therefore must not unlawfully discriminate in any aspect of recruitment covered by the Act. The positive action provisions in the Act enable an employer to treat one gender more favourably than the other in connection with recruitment providing certain conditions are met.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 12/09/2018 16:45:49 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
