Small Businesses: Equality
Tuesday 10th June 2025

Asked by: Dan Aldridge (Labour - Weston-super-Mare)

Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what recent estimate she has made of the cost of legal advice for small businesses of the proposed changes to the Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions, and Associations by the EHRC.

Answered by Nia Griffith - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Wales Office)

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is independent of government. The purpose of the EHRC’s Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations is to ensure or facilitate compliance with the Equality Act 2010 or an enactment made under that Act. The EHRC has opened its consultation on the draft updated statutory Code of Practice, seeking views from affected stakeholders. We encourage all those affected stakeholders to submit a response to the consultation. We will then consider the EHRC’s updated draft once they have submitted it.
