To ask Her Majesty’s Government what evidence they have about the benefits and costs of the use of the questionnaire procedure in discrimination cases under the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 and subsequent anti-discrimination legislation to enable claimants to obtain information to determine if unlawful discrimination has occurred in their case.[HL425]

Research carried out for the Government Equalities Office in June 2009 estimated awareness and usage of the individual questionnaire procedure prior to the Equality Act 2010. It estimated that 9,000-10,000 businesses had completed the previous versions of the forms, including the questionnaire procedure for discrimination cases under the Sex Discrimination Act 1975, taking five to six hours to complete. As a result of simplifying and consolidating the forms through the Equality Act 2010, the Government of the day estimated that the consolidated forms would result in a reduction of administrative burden on businesses of 25%, equivalent to £1.4 million per annum.

Through this consultation we are seeking evidence on the costs and benefits the use of the obtaining information procedure under the Equality Act 2010. This consultation can be found at: http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/ publications/about-us/consultations/equality-act-wider-enforcement/.
