Details
An equality impact assessment (EIA) is an evidence-based approach designed to help ensure that their policies, practices, events and decision-making processes are fair and do not present barriers to participation or disadvantage any protected groups from participation.
The EIA will help to ensure that:
- we understand the potential effects of the scheme by assessing the impacts on different
- groups both external and internal
- any adverse impacts are identified and actions identified to remove or mitigate them
- decisions are transparent and based on evidence with clear reasoning
