Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, on how many occasions the provision of mandatory training for her Departmental staff regarding their obligations under the Equality Act 2010 has been cited by her Department as a defence against Section 109 proceedings since the commencement of that Act.
The Department does not hold this information centrally and to provide it would incur disproportionate costs.
