Gloria De Piero MP, Labour’s Shadow Minister for Women and Equalities, commenting on the Government’s announcement on ending the gender pay gap, said:

“It’s good news that the Government have finally embraced pay transparency after shelving the Labour legislation for five years. But for pay transparency to make a real difference, we need to have an annual equal pay check which measures progress and recommends what action needs to be taken - a move the Government voted against earlier this month.”
