Equality Schemes
- Eliminate unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation and other conduct prohibited by the Act.
- Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.
- Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.
In Scotland the Equality Act was followed by additional
duties that applied to public bodies, known as the specific duties, or Public
Sector Equality Duties.
In response to these requirements, The Loch Lomond & The
Trossachs National Park Authority Equality & Diversity Mainstreaming Report was produced in April 2013.
The Equalities Outcomes for the National Park
Authority was also published in
April 2013. This aims to further the three parts of the general equality
duty.
