The Family Test was announced by the Prime Minister in August 2014 and introduced in October 2014 through the publication of guidance for officials - Family Test Guidance

The Ministry of Justice has applied the Test since it was introduced. The DWP is working with all departments to embed the Test in the policymaking process.
