Department for Work and Pensions: Sanitation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many (a) single sex and (b) gender neutral bathroom facilities his Department provides in its Whitehall premises.
Answered by Sir Stephen Timms
The DWP’s main Whitehall building, Caxton House has 84 single sex cubicles, 34 urinals and 0 non-gendered universal toilets (individual self-contained lockable toilet rooms which contain a toilet, washbasin and hand-drying facilities). This is in addition to 26 wheelchair accessible toilets.
Caxton House 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).
