The Equalities Impact Assessment considers the possible impacts of the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area (TBH SPA) Avoidance Strategy 2009-2014 on specific groups within the community.  Considering equalities issues throughout the preparation of the updated Avoidance Strategy assists us in avoiding inadvertent negative or discriminatory consequences for particular sections of the community.  These specifically include race, gender, disability (physical and mental), religion, sexuality, and/or age, and includes people who may be within more than one of these groups.

Comments on this Equalities Impact Assessment, and any improvements which we could make to this aspect of the Avoidance Strategy are welcomed.  The latest version of the TBH SPA Avoidance Strategy 2009-2014 Equalities Impact Assessment can be downloaded below:
