Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will publish the number of discrimination cases relating to disfigurement brought under the Equality Act 2010 since 2010.

The Ministry of Justice currently publishes data on six discrimination jurisdictions including age, sex, religion, disability, race and sexual orientation, which are dealt with in the Employment Tribunal. The data can be found using the link:

There are no future plans to include the number of discrimination cases relating to disfigurement brought under the Equality Act 2010 in the published statistics.
