Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if the Government will publish its equality impact assessment of the Immigration Bill.
The Government has already published a number of equality impact assessments relating to the Immigration Bill covering residential tenancies, driving, banks, appeals and support. They can be found online:

Further equality statements in relation to labour market enforcement and the English language requirement in the public sector will be published in the New Year together with the Government’s responses to the recent public consultations on these subjects.
