CONSULTATION ON RELIGION AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION AMENDMENT REGULATIONS
New equality legislation outlawing
discrimination on grounds of Religion or Belief and Sexual Orientation in
employment and vocational training came into force in December 2003.
The introduction of this legislation, The Employment
Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations 2003 and The Employment Equality
(Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2003 is a major step towards tackling unfair
discrimination.
We sought your views on draft regulations which
complement these.
The Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations
2003 (Amendment) Regulations 2003 and The Employment Equality (Sexual
Orientation) Regulations 2003 (Amendment) Regulations 2003 outlaw
discrimination and harassment on grounds of religion or belief and sexual
orientation by trustees and managers of occupational pension schemes.
This consultation was launched on 15 September 2003 and
ended on 10 October 2003.
