| Annotation | The Government's proposals for a Single Equality Bill for Great Britain have been developed as a result of the Discrimination Law Review, launched in February 2005. This summary outlines the main issues covered by each of the main Discrimination Law Review documents. First, the three parts of the consultation document: harmonising and simplifying the law; making the law more effective; and modernising the law. Next, a section on the regulatory impact assessment (RIA) gives an overall summary of estimated quantifiable costs and benefits. Lastly, the equality impact assessment considers the impact of the proposals in terms of race, age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. (RH). |
