BBC director-general Tim Davie has said there are eight equal pay cases open internally within the BBC which he feels is an “achievement” in comparison with where the corporation was.
MP John Nicolson questioned Mr Davie during a Culture, Media and Sport Committee meeting on Tuesday on the corporation’s handling of such cases including that of former Northern Ireland newsreader Donna Traynor, who settled a tribunal case earlier this year after alleging she was discriminated against on the basis of age, sex and disability.
