Disability, Gender & Race Equality Schemes
Health Scotland is committed to the delivery and continuous development of the following equality schemes and action plans.
Disability Equality
We have reviewed our Disability Equality Scheme 2006-2009 and looked at progress with our action plan and identified the areas that we need to focus on to deliver real improvements on disability equality. This review has helped to develop our Disability Equality Scheme 2009-2012 and action plan.
