Equality Policy

The aim of this policy is to communicate the commitment of Andover Town Council, its Members and Officer(s) to meeting the Public Sector Equality Duty, which came into force on 5 April 2011.

The Equality Duty applies to public bodies and others carrying out public functions. It supports good decision-making by ensuring public bodies consider how different people will be affected by their activities, helping them to deliver policies, representation and services which are efficient and effective; accessible to all; and which meet different people’s needs; the promotion of equality and diversity in relation to Andover Town Council.
