Department for Transport: Families
Friday 12th June 2015

Asked by: David Burrowes (Conservative - Enfield, Southgate)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to the Prime Minister's press release of August 2014, what steps he is taking to assess the impact of his Department's policies on the family.

Answered by Robert Goodwill

The Family Test was announced by the Prime Minister in August 2014 and introduced in October 2014 through the publication of guidance for officials - Family Test Guidance

The Department for Transport’s internal procedures have been updated to reflect this guidance.
