Treasury: Families
(asked on 13th December 2017) - View Source
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, to which legislation his Department has applied the Family Test, published in August 2014.
This question was answered on 20th December 2017
As announced by the Prime Minister in August 2014, the objective of the Family Test is to introduce an explicit family perspective to the policy making process, and ensure that potential impacts on family relationships are recognised in the process of developing new policy.
The Treasury carefully considers all relevant obligations, including the family test, when formulating all policies including those delivered through primary and secondary legislation.
