Details

The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (as amended by the Disability Discrimination) (Northern Ireland) (Order 2006) requires public authorities, when carrying out their functions, to have due regard to the need to:

  • promote positive attitudes towards disabled people

  • encourage participation by disabled people in public life

Under section 49B of the DDA 1995 Act, public authorities are required to submit disability action plans to the Equality Commission showing how they propose to fulfil the disability duties in relation to their functions. You can find the Northern Ireland Office’s Disability Action Plan for the period 2020 - 2025 above.
