The Equalities Review

The Equalities Review has been established to carry out an investigation into the causes of persistent discrimination and inequality in British society. The Review, which is independent, is chaired by Trevor Phillips in a personal capacity. He is supported by a Review Panel comprising: Sir Robert Kerslake Carol Lake Dame Judith Mayhew Jonas Nick Pe... arce. In addition, there is a Review Team comprised of civil servants drawn from departments across government and based in the Cabinet Office. Parallel to the Equalities Review, the Department for Trade and Industry (DTI) has begun work on a review to assess how anti-discrimination legislation can be modernised to fit the needs of Britain in the 21st century. More information about the Discrimination Law Review is available on the DTI's Women & Equality Unit webpage. A wider reference group of equality stakeholders and experts, co-chaired by the Chair of the Disability Rights Commission and the Chair of the Equal Opportunities Commission, has been set up to provide independent advice and input to both the Equalities Review and the Discrimination Law Review. More information about the Review's work will be placed on this site as that work progresses. The Equalities Review, Room 03.32, 22 Whitehall, London SW1A 2WH.Read More
