The guidance has been developed primarily for those responsible for implementing the Wales specific equality duties, particularly those at senior and operational level who are responsible for policy and decision-making. The guidance will also be useful to anyone who has an interest in the work and activities of public authorities.
It is important that senior decision-makers in public authorities (such as Chief Executives, Chairs and Board members) receive adequate briefing on the equality duty. This should equip them to ensure that equality is properly considered within the organisation and that it influences decision-making at all levels.
