Travellers: Caravan Sites
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the answer of 21 April 2026 to Question 126747 on Travellers: Caravan Sites, if she will publish the Public Sector Equality Duty assessment.
Answered by Sarah Jones
The Government takes all necessary steps to ensure that legislation is developed in line with its statutory obligations, including the Public Sector Equality Duty.
Equality impacts were considered as part of the development of the amendment to police powers in relation to unauthorised encampments.
The Home Office keeps under review what information can appropriately be published but does not routinely publish internal advice or assessments that inform policy development.
