RACE RELATIONS

This Order amends the list of bodies and other persons specified in Schedule 1A to the Race Relations Act 1976 who are subject to the general duty, by virtue of section 71(1) of that Act, to have due regard, when exercising their functions, to the need to eliminate unlawful racial discrimination and to promote equality of opportunity and good relations between persons of different racial groups. The Order repeals an entry in that list (licensing planning committees) and updates another (probation boards). The Order also adds to that list the bodies and other persons specified in the Schedule to the Order, thereby also subjecting those bodies and persons to the general duty.
