Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 14 March 2017 to Question 66566, if he will set out each case in the current Parliamentary session for which an equalities impact assessment has been produced but not published; and in each of those cases the reason for non-publication.

DWP is committed to valuing equality and diversity. The Equality Act 2010 is embedded into all DWP Processes and Policies. However, there is no requirement to publish evidence of Equality Analysis undertaken.

Evidence of Equality Analysis undertaken within DWP is not centrally collated and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
