Publishing Information
Publishing of equality information showing compliance with the General Equality Duty
Our Equality Priorities are identified from actions detailed in the Councils Corporate Plan.
The equality objectives will be set as part of our business planning process. The Corporate Plan is the council's overarching business plan and this is supported by service plans for each of the council's divisions and the departments that sit within each Division. The equality objectives will ensure that we meet local needs, which we will report on and publish on our website.
More information can be found on the Equality and Human Rights Commission and Home Office websites.

Equality Objectives
We have produced a new set of priorities to reflect the change in political administration and refreshing our Corporate Plan, which includes the Council's vision, aims and objectives. The Corporate Plan will include the Council's overarching objectives in terms of equality.
The North Warwickshire Sustainable Community Strategy sets out our three key priorities for improving the overall quality of life in North Warwickshire from 2009 to 2026.
The challenge is to put in place the appropriate tools and infrastructure to deliver sustained improvement for all our communities so that more people can enjoy life and reach their full potential.
