Race Equality Scheme

This is a statement of Salford City Council's commitment to fulfilling its statutory obligations in compliance with section 71(1) of the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000.

The Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000 placed new duties on public authorities to eliminate unlawful racial discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and promote good relations between people of different racial groups and the city council is committed to work with its partners in Salford to achieve those aims.

We recognise the need to positively respond to and value the needs and differences of an increasingly ethnically diverse community in Salford. Publishing and consulting on this scheme is one of a number of initiatives we are taking. Our partners such as the police, health providers and educational establishments are also publishing schemes of this type. Through Partners IN Salford we will be working together to improve our performance and make a difference to the lives of all citizens.

The Scheme also outlines a plan for the more effective mainstreaming of race equality within policy and service delivery.

If you would like to comment on the scheme please visit our consultation page for further information.
