Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what the (a) amount, (b) recipient and (c) purpose of each grant distributed by the Equality and Human Rights Commission since 2016 was.
The Equality and Human Rights Commission is an independent public body and grants that it makes under Section 17 of the Equality Act 2006 decisions are matters for the Commission itself. I have therefore asked the Commission’s Chief Executive Officer to write to my Hon friend with the information requested. I will place a copy of the letter in the libraries of both Houses.
