The proportion of women employed by my Department on an outer London pay structure, by pay grade, is as follows:<\/p>

Admin Assistant/Officer: 0.3%<\/p>

Executive Officer: 0.5%<\/p>

Higher/Senior Executive Officer: 3.1%<\/p>

Grade Six/Seven: 2.1%<\/p>

The Cabinet Office is headquartered in London and therefore these figures will reflect that.<\/p>

The Government is committed to improving female representation and tackling the gender pay gap in the Civil Service. As part of the Talent Action Plan the commitments we will take forward include a critical talent review and to review our approach to maternity leave and returning to work. We have already introduced shared parental leave across the Civil Service and a new online job share portal to help people identify job share opportunities across the organisation.<\/p>

From April 2017 we will be introducing new measures that require all organisations across the private, voluntary and public sector to regularly publish gender pay gap analysis and statistics, to bring greater transparency to pay disparities between men and women across the UK.<\/p>
