Sport: Women on Governing Bodies

Lord Tebbit Excerpts

Thursday 6th April 2017 Lords Chamber

[Lord Ashton of Hyde]

My Lords, that really is not in the remit of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, but I will refer the noble Baroness’s question to the relevant department.

[Lord Tebbit (Con)]

My Lords, will my noble friend say whether the Government intend to publish quotas for all categories, not just men and women but all those in between and people who do not feel comfortable with one or the other of those categories? It would be so unfair if we did not—would it not?

[Lord Ashton of Hyde]

I can be very clear to my noble friend: we do not intend to publish quotas.
