The Queen plans diversity drive: Royals will boost existing programmes as Harry and Meghan's accusations of racism are blamed for 'unproductive' peace talks with William and Charles
- The Queen will be appointing a diversity tsar to modernise the Monarchy
- Palace will 'seek independent views' to help improve approach to diversity
- Move is part of a major drive encompassing Buckingham Palace, Clarence House and Kensington Palace
The Queen is to appoint a diversity tsar to modernise the Monarchy, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Sources say the proposed move is an acknowledgment that 'more needs to be done' to champion minorities' rights and follows the explosive claims made by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of institutional racism.
As part of a major drive encompassing Buckingham Palace, Clarence House and Kensington Palace, aides will undertake a 'listen and learn' exercise over the coming weeks which will involve speaking to a range of businesses and individuals about how the Monarchy can improve representation.
Plans seen by this newspaper detail how the Palace will 'seek independent views' to help assess and improve the approach to diversity – including ethnic minorities, the disabled and the gay and trans communities.
The potential recruitment of a diversity chief to champion reform is also set out.
A Royal source said: 'This is an issue which has been taken very seriously across the Households.
'We have the policies, procedures and programmes in place but we haven't seen the progress we would like and accept more needs to be done. We can always improve.
'We are not afraid to look at new ways of approaching it. The work to do this has been under way for some time now and comes with the full support of the family.'
The project has been given fresh impetus as Harry and Meghan appear to step up their battle with the Royal Family over racism.

News-breh takes Piers' seat
'Shameful!': Viewers turn on 'jumped-up weatherman' Alex Beresford after he takes Piers Morgan's old seat to present Good Morning Britain as 450,000 desert show after row that led to star presenter leaving
Good Morning Britain fans took to Twitter to criticise Alex Beresford this morning as he stepped into the presenter's chair, just weeks after his on-air row with Piers Morgan, which ended with the host quitting the show.
Beresford, 40, has been best known on the show for presenting the weather, but joined Kate Garraway front and centre on today's broadcast - a move which caused a stir with many viewers on social media.
The departure of controversial host Morgan, 55, has seen many vote with their feet, as viewing figures for ITV's flagship breakfast programme have continued to slide since he stormed off at the start of the month.
Latest figures showed GMB drew in just 840,000 viewers on Thursday - a huge drop since its record-breaking morning of figures on Morgan's last day, when some 1.29 million tuned in, meaning nearly half a million people have deserted the show.
By contrast, BBC Breakfast attracted 1.53 million viewers on Thursday morning.
Thursday's figures for ITV are generally consistent with what has been seen in the weeks since Morgan's departure, although ratings did increase earlier this week to 1.1 million for Ben Shephard's appearance alongside Susanna Reid on Tuesday, before dropping by 100,000 the following day.
Viewing figures are not yet available for Friday morning's programme.
While sources told MailOnline Beresford standing in as presenter was not unusual, today's show drew a fierce reaction online, with many viewers unhappy to see him in the hotseat so soon after the row which went viral.
One wrote: 'Please no, not Alex. The weatherman in place of Piers is such an insult.'
A second said: 'Feel @GMB are being totally disrespectful to @piersmorgan - seriously the weatherman trying to present and with a hula hoop.'
Another ranted: 'Just switched on to see Alex Beresford in Piers Morgan's seat? I wonder how long he has wanted that?? Since when does a weatherman have the right credentials to be a respected newsreader! I can only assume it's to appease the Meghan supporters. Shameful after his behaviour!'

Never change Britain
You can always rely on the Daily Heil to publish that particular brand of trope laden dog shyte.
And this Meghan stuff only went from the front page because a woman got murdered by a police officer and the protests that followed.
England is a sad and pathetic little country.
