Since the formation of this Department in September 2020, a total of two cases have been taken under the Equality Acts. The ground(s) for discrimination under each case is set out in tabular form below:
Year | Ground(s) for Discrimination |
---|---|
2020 | Disability |
2022 | Gender/Family Status/Age/Civil Status |
One case did not progress and one case is ongoing.It would not be appropriate to comment further on either case.
