Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many prosecutions have been brought for unlawful sexual discrimination in the field of employment in each of the last three years.
This question was answered on 9th February 2017
Sexual discrimination is not a prosecutable offence.
Employment tribunals are not criminal courts and therefore it is not possible to prosecute for unlawful sexual discrimination before an employment tribunal.
