Annotation | In order to implement the EU Gender Directive, the Government proposes, among other things, to amend the Sex Discrimination Act relating to insurance, to specify the circumstances under which insurance companies may charge different premiums or offer different benefits to men and women. One proposed condition is that data relevant to such differential treatment must be published and regularly updated. This response from Age Concern England (ACE) focuses on the proposal that data should be broken down by age as well as by sex. (RH). |
