Equalities Minister Maria Miller has appointed a steering group to examine whether the Public Sector Equality Duty is working as originally intended.
The Government announced in May 2012 that it would bring forward the planned review of the Equality Duty, which requires public bodies to consider all individuals when carrying out their
day-to-day work.
This was part of the outcome of the Red Tape Challenge exercise on equalities, and today’s announcement marks the next step in this process. The steering group is expected to report during
the summer of 2013.
