HC Deb 12 May 1982 vol 23 c254W
Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister for the Civil Service whether any talks are taking place between her Department and the Civil Service unions on the setting up of a survey to determine whether there is sexual harassment, male and female, at places of work within Government Departments; and what would be the cost of such survey.

Mr. Hayhoe

No. A joint review group of management and trade unions is presently considering all aspects of the employment of women in the Civil Service, and the trade unions have suggested that the question of sexual harassment should be considered as a possible problem.
