Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of introducing mandatory disability pay gap reporting for companies with over fifty employees.

We recently held a public consultation on introducing mandatory ethnicity and disability pay gap reporting. Our consultation closed on June 10^th and we are now considering those responses, including views on which employers should be in scope of the requirements, and we will report back to Parliament in due course.
