The question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what the responsibilities are of (a) the Minister for Women and Equalities and (b) the Minister of State for Women and Equalities attending Cabinet.

Answered by Bridget Phillipson

Progressing equalities is core to this Government’s work, and the Secretary of State and Minister of State with responsibilities for Women and Equalities will work closely together to deliver on the Government’s priorities and the relevant legislation set out in the King’s Speech.

The Government will no longer work in silos – it will be mission led, working collaboratively across government – with the single aim of realising our ambitions for a decade of national renewal.
