Guidance on the equality duty PDF Print E-mail

The guides provide an overview of the equality duty, including the general equality duty, the specific duties and who they apply to. They cover what public authorities should do to meet the duty. This includes steps that are legally required, as well as recommended actions.

Separate guidance (and Codes of Practice) on the equality duty will be available from the Commission for Scotland and Wales.

All the guides now have been revised (December 2011 and January 2012) to reflect the final version of the specific duty regulations.
