The question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, when she plans to respond to the consultation on Equity law, which closed on 30 June 2025.

Answered by Seema Malhotra

We published a call for evidence on equality law which considered areas of existing equality legislation and possible equality law reform.

We are giving the responses careful consideration as we consider next steps. We will publish the Government response in due course on: https://www.gov.uk/government/calls-for-evidence/equality-law-call-for-evidence.
