What steps she is taking to help tackle pay disparities for disabled people.

Tackling pay disparities for disabled people is a major focus, hence bringing forward measures to address them in the King’s Speech.In March, we launched a consultation on proposals to introduce mandatory disability pay gap reporting for large businesses.Through the upcoming Equality (Race and Disability) Bill, we will make the right to equal pay effective for disabled people. Our Call for Evidence, launched in April, seeks views on this.
