Home Office: Sanitation

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 8 January 2025 to Question 21687 on Home Office: Sanitation, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the updated building regulation published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government entitled Toilet accommodation: Approved Document T, published on 1 October 2024, on the provision of gender-neutral toilets in her Department’s buildings.

Answered by Dame Diana Johnson

I have made no assessment.

The Hon Member may think the job of the Policing Minister is to make assessments of the Home Office’s toilets, but I believe it is to restore neighbourhood policing in our country, tackle antisocial behaviour, and deliver this Government’s unprecedented mission to halve knife crime over the next decade.
