Programme

The Equality Act will come into effect in October 2010.

 

The Corporate Equality Team has organised this workshop to give councillors a chance to find out how the Act will affect the Council, what we need to do to prepare and to discuss the opportunities the Act brings for the Council overall.

Please note

1. Different venues, times and days are proposed when possible to enable as many councillors to attend but we do have to use the one(s) with the most possible attendees.

 

2. Following a development session the information, if possible, will be made available on the Councillor Development Area on the Intranet.

 

3. If you are not able to attend a session that you were very interested in and the information cannot be made available on line it may be possible to organise a one-to-one with a relevant officer or a personal development session; if you are interested please contact Marie Gondlach (details below).

 

4. Pre-booking is essential. If you do not book 3 working days in advance, catering (if applicable) cannot be guaranteed, nor parking or seating at the venue.

 

5. There is a cost to providing any development event. If you are unable to attend a previously booked course, please let Marie Gondlach know so that the place can be offered to others.

 

6. Co-opted members, Town and Parish Councillors, Partners and Councillors from neighbouring authorities may be in attendance at some sessions.
