Equality legislation requires the Council to publish information about equalities. This page provides links to this information.

The equality information falls into two main categories:

Information to Identify Equality Issues: Information to help us identify equality issues: This includes equality monitoring information about our employees and our service users. It also covers information about the effect of the Council’s activities on people with different protected characteristics and the engagement we have carried out.

Information about the steps we’ve taken to ensure equality: This includes the steps we have taken to have due regard to the aims of the equality duty. This covers information about how we had due regard in making certain decisions, include our Equality Impact Assessments and details of policies to address equality concerns.
