I am required under subsection (11) of section 203 of the Equality Act 2010 to report to Parliament on the exercise of a harmonisation power provided for in that section.

This reporting requirement is triggered every two years, beginning now, with the second anniversary of royal assent to the act.
I am accordingly today informing the House that no use has been made of the power in section 203.
