Department of Health and Social Care: Equality
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether they have made an estimate of the potential impact of abolishing diversity, equity and inclusion roles in their Department on annual staffing costs.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The Department has no current roles which focus exclusively on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The roles to support the Department's legal and policy obligations under this remit are integrated into its wider human resources and policy functions. Therefore, the Department has not made such an estimate.
