Thursday 12 September 2019
The Committee for Employment & Social Security are presently seeking the views of the community on their draft proposals for multi-ground discrimination legislation. The consultation is open until Monday 30th September 2019.
The Committee is particularly interested to hear the views of small business owners and would like to invite them to a dedicated focus group. The focus group will be an opportunity for small businesses to gain a greater understanding of the proposals and what they mean for businesses. The focus group will also be an opportunity for small business owners to share their thoughts and feedback to the Committee on the proposals.
The event will take place on Wednesday 18 September 2019 at Edward T. Wheadon House from 7pm to 9pm. Refreshments will be provided from 6.45pm. If you are interested in participating in the small business focus groups please contact the Discrimination Team on 01481 732546 or email equality@gov.gg by midday on Tuesday 17 September 2019.
More information on the draft proposals and a consultation questionnaire can be found online at www.gov.gg/discriminationconsultation.
