Mr. Anthony D. Wright: To ask the Minister what steps she is taking to promote best practice in industry on equal pay. [33828]
Ms Hewitt: The Government have taken a number of steps already. As well as a questionnaire procedure for use in equal pay cases and
other provisions in the Employment Bill, the Fair Pay Champions and the Castle Awards, created by my predecessor, are helping to
spread good practice on equal pay. We are also taking forward recommendations from the Kingsmill report aimed at further reducing
the pay gap. I have written to my Cabinet colleagues' union and will soon be writing to FTSE 100 companies, to gather examples of
their good working practices, so that we can help spread these more widely.
