  • Birmingham City Council Equality Act 2010 Specific Duties Information to Be Published 2014
    BIRMINGHAM CITY COUNCIL EQUALITY ACT 2010 SPECIFIC DUTIES INFORMATION TO BE PUBLISHED 2014 1. SECTION 1 – WHY WE PUBLISH EQUALITY INFORMATION Birmingham City Council like other public authorities has for the last two years published equalities information, in demonstrating compliance with the Equality Act 2010 to give due regard to: - Eliminating discrimination, harassment and victimisation - Advancing equality of opportunity between persons who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share it - Fostering good relations between persons who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share it. In support of the general duty and to respond to the two requirements of the specific duties the council must: - Publish equality information - Set and publish equality objectives Publish equalities information – we publish equality information from each of our service directorates to demonstrate our understanding of how different people might be affected by our activities. This helps us to ensure that services are appropriate and accessible to all and meet different people’s needs. The information published includes customer profiling information; types of services being delivered, and consultation and engagement activities. The City Council takes account of the potential impacts of its policies and decisions on equalities, social cohesion and social inclusion, through a risk analysis process referred to as Equality Assessment (EA). This ensures that the potential implications of such proposals on those with the ‘protected characteristics’ covered under the Equality Act 2010 are considered. This has formed the basis of the Council’s programme of Equality Assessments, and supplements other information, which the council collects and publishes on a range of other areas.

One of my proudest achievements here has been the LGBT+ Conservatives Candidates’ Fund, which has supported so many people into parliament and raised tens of thousands of pounds. As the fund matures it is moving into a new governance structure, and I hope to play a role in that future. I am thrilled to be succeeded by Elena Bunbury. I know that she will bring new energy to the organisation, and I hope it will continue to thrive under her leadership. I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me on this journey. In particular Emma Warman, Matthew Green and John Cope who have provided wise counsel as Deputy Chairman. To Sean Anstee who has transformed the finances of the organisation.
