In 2017, the FTSE 100 had 25.2% women in executive committees and direct reports. This had barely changed from 2016, showing that robust action is needed from businesses to achieve the Hampton-Alexander Review\u2019s target of 33% by 2020.<\/p>
To increase the level of ambition, the Hampton-Alexander Review has now extended the executive pipeline target of 33% women from the FTSE 100 to the wider FTSE 350 \u2013 around 1 in 2 of all new appointments needing to go to women to achieve this target by 2020.

The need to interview passport applicants is limited to an adult applying for their first UK passport (unless identity is in doubt) and as such is a once in a lifetime requirement.
