The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many (a) single sex and (b) gender neutral bathroom facilities his Department provides in its main Whitehall building.

Answered by Anna Turley

The Cabinet Office’s main Whitehall building, 70 Whitehall, has 39 single sex cubicles, 14 urinals and 14 non-gendered universal toilets (individual self-contained lockable toilet rooms which contain a toilet, washbasin and hand-drying facilities). This is in addition to 14 wheelchair accessible toilets.

70 Whitehall does not have any gender neutral toilets (i.e. toilets where users, of any gender, share a single space containing toilet cubicles, urinal facilities and shared hand washing facilities).
