Lord Fowler
Main Page: Lord Fowler (Crossbench - Life peer)The noble Baroness raised a number of important issues. I spent a lot of the weekend trawling through the Mumsnet findings, which showed that school closures have made balancing work and childcare particularly challenging for all working mothers. As for support for Muslim women, the Government Equalities Office has awarded grants to a number of organisations in the private sector. Over 25 returner programmes have been launched, and those with protected characteristics—such as women and black and ethnic minorities—have benefited from these programmes.
My Lords, I regret that the time allowed for this Question has elapsed. We now come to the fourth Oral Question.
