answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/01/2024 answer text <p>In line with the Public Sector Equality Duty, all public authorities, including our Department, are required by law to have due regard to certain equality considerations when carrying out their functions. While ‘equality impact assessments’ are a tool utilised in this process, there is no legal requirement for these assessments to be recorded in a specific format or centrally monitored. Therefore, providing data for each year is currently not feasible.</p> answering member constituency Arundel and South Downs answering member printed Andrew Griffith question first answered 25/01/2024 11:39:59 answering member 4874 label Biography information for Andrew Griffith
