§ Mrs. LaitTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will make a statement on the progress towards achieving equality of opportunity for women staff in the civil service.
§ Mr. David DavisIn the past year, steady progress has been made. Women now represent 51.2 per cent. of staff in the non-industrial home civil service. There are more 863W women than ever before in the management grades, with improved representation in the senior grades. There is an increasing use of flexible working patterns by women and men in the civil service and further development of childcare facilities. A report on the progress made during 1992–93 towards achieving equality of opportunity for women in the civil service has been published today. Copies have been placed in the Library of the House.
