Race Equality Scheme

The Race Equality Scheme and Action Plan are currently under review.  The revised versions will be published on this page by the end of July 2008

The Council's Race Equality Scheme is part of a wider equality policy and commitment (that includes race, gender, disability, age, religion and belief and sexual orientation) in relation to the delivery of services and the employment of staff.  

The Council is under a legal duty to proactively promote race equality.  The Race Equality Scheme and Action Plan set out what steps the Council will take to:

  • eliminate unlawful discrimination;
  • promote equality of opportunity between different racial groups and
  • promote good relations between persons of different racial groups.

The Race Equality Scheme also gives details of how the Council will assess and monitor its employment and service delivery to ensure that all members of the community of Bath and North East Somerset receive a fair an equitable service.
