§ Mr. Jannerasked the Paymaster General if he will make a statement on the operation of the Commission for Racial Equality's code of practice for the elimination of racial discrimination and promotion of equality of opportunity in employment.
§ Mr. LangInformation about the operation of this code is given in the Commission for Racial Equality's annual report for 1985, which was laid before the House on 12 June.
A growing number of employers are finding that the code's recommendations provide a useful and acceptable framework against which to review personnel practices and procedures.
The Department of Employment's race relations employment advisory service continues to give priority to advising employers on the code's provisions.
