We are not able to provide the information requested. However, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) publishes the UK gender pay gap figures annually. This measure includes all basic pay before deductions for PAYE, National Insurance, pension schemes, student loan repayments and voluntary deductions, but does not include benefits or tax credits:

2010

2013

2014

To close the gender pay gap, the Government is introducing mandatory reporting for large employers in Great Britain from April 2017.
