Equalities Commission lists key internal equality strand contacts
20 November 2009
The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) remains committed to working across the different equality and human rights strabnds. However, appointing internal EHRC Directors as “champions” aims to ensure the Commission’s work on each separate strand and human rights receives a senior level overview and is appropriately coordinated and reported.
