Early Parliamentary General Election

"I entirely agree.

I am going to speak for Brenda in Bristol, although there are plenty of Brendas in Birmingham. I do not think that we should have a general election, and I will not vote for one. I also think that we should not have a conference recess and …..."

Early Parliamentary General Election

"I am not going to give way any more. I apologise, but I have given way plenty of times already.

If we were to go out into the street and ask them, the British public would say that they think we should be in here doing our job. They think …..."

G7 Summit

"I beg the Prime Minister to answer the question that I am going to ask, rather than just saying “No comment” as if this were a magazine interview.

European Council

"I do not know who advises the Prime Minister, but she says she will engage in this constructively, yet she is whipping against the idea of having it and she will not make any of it binding. Just as an observer, that does not seem very constructive to me at …..."

Leaving the European Union

"I feel so enraged this week by the complete and utter lack of bravery to do the right thing for our country. Perhaps it is because I have spent my week in my constituency trying to put out the burning injustices that the Prime Minister’s Government have started where I …..."

Written Question
Equal Pay
Monday 18th February 2019

Asked by: Jess Phillips (Labour - Birmingham Yardley)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will provide the gender pay gap data for 2018 by (a) disability, (b) ethnicity and (c) age.

Answered by Chloe Smith

The most recent information about the gender pay gap in the Cabinet Office is available at https://gender-pay-gap.service.gov.uk/Employer/FukQqlAW.

In 2017, the Government introduced legislation that made it statutory for all organisations with 250 or more employees to report annually on their gender pay gap. Employers must report the mean and median hourly pay gap, the mean and median gender bonus gaps, the proportion of males and females who received a bonus and the proportions of male and female employees in each pay quartile.

Data on disability, ethnicity or age within this is not held.

Oral Answers to Questions

"Q6. It seems that our laws allow rich and powerful men to pretty much do whatever they want, as long as they can pay to keep it quiet, so does the Prime Minister support the Court of Appeal’s decision to back non-disclosure agreements that have been used to silence women …..."
