Data, Statistics and Research on Sex and Gender Independent Review
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what steps his Department is taking to implement the findings of the Sullivan Review.
Answered by Jake Richards
We have reviewed the recommendations of the Sullivan Review and examined how sex and gender data are currently collected across the main Ministry of Justice data systems. Currently, there is variation in terminology and approaches across these different systems.
We are therefore taking forward work to improve consistency in data collection. In doing so, we will align our approach to the Office for National Statistics’ ongoing harmonisation work on sex and gender data to ensure that our data collection is robust, comparable and consistent.
