Department for Culture, Media and Sport
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how many employment tribunal claims have been lodged against her Department in each of the last five years by (a) unfair dismissal and (b) claims under the Equality Act 2010.
Answered by Ian Murray
In the past 5 years 7 employment tribunals have been lodged against our department. 5 of these claims were under the Equality Act.
We cannot provide the number of claims broken down by year or those that were related to unfair dismissal or claims under the Equality Act 2010. Doing so would breach the Data Protection Act and risk identifying individual cases where the case count is five or less, as the information relates to someone other than the data subjects.
