Draft Disability Action Plan

All PCSPs are subject to the requirements of Section 49A and 49B of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (“Disability Duties”). These duties mean that PCSPs, when exercising its functions, must have due regard to the need to:

Encourage participation by disabled people in public life

PCSP

As part of this, Antrim and Newtownabbey PCSP are required to produce a disability action plan showing how it proposes to fulfil the disability duties and submit this plan to the Equality Commission.
