Ar 22 Tachwedd 2019 lansiais i ymgynghoriad ar roi Rhan 1, Adran 1 o Ddeddf Cydraddoldeb 2010 ar waith – sef y Ddyletswydd Economaidd-gymdeithasol. Bydd y Ddyletswydd yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i gyrff cyhoeddus penodol, wrth wneud penderfyniadau strategol fel 'penderfynu ar flaenoriaethau a phennu amcanion', ystyried sut y gallai eu penderfyniadau helpu i leihau anghydraddoldebau sy'n gysylltiedig ag anfantais economaidd-gymdeithasol.
On 22 November 2019 I launched a consultation on the commencement of Part 1, Section 1 of the Equality Act 2010 – the Socio-economic Duty. The duty will require specified public bodies, when making strategic decisions such as ‘deciding priorities and setting objectives’, to consider how their decisions could help to reduce the inequalities associated with socio-economic disadvantage.
