Question
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, which policies contained in the 2010 Coalition Agreement and falling under the Government Equalities Office's responsibilities have not yet been implemented; and what the reasons are for each such policy's non-implementation.
The Government Equalities Office has implemented all of the commitments in the Coalition’s Programme for Government that fall either wholly or in part to us. These were as follows:
We will promote equal pay and take a range of measures to end discrimination in the workplace. |
We will look to promote gender equality on the boards of listed companies |
We will use our relationships with other countries to push for unequivocal support for gay rights and for UK civil partnerships to be recognised internationally. |
We will introduce extra support for people with disabilities who want to become MPs, councillors or other elected officials. |
We will help schools tackle bullying in schools, especially homophobic bullying. |
