bluemonday Posted July 19, 2008 Author Share Posted July 19, 2008 So they have done the DD Act ( 2006 ) paperwork etc but it's not passed and enacted then? Is it actually legal to not implement it? There isn't anything to not implement until it receives it Day of Appointment order. So yes, you can discriminate away. Latest ETA of the delayed act is 2010. Obviously government weren't aware of the bill as it was making its tortuously slow progress and were entirely surprised when they realised that they would be in breach of it. Only once it's law will they start to explain to businesses what they have to do about it rather than start now. I *think* I'm right in saying we're the only country in Europe that doesn't have any legal protection for people who have a disability. Perhaps not one of our proudest boasts? The 2006 Finance Act was passed on the same day as the Disability Discrimination Act and received its Day of Appointment the following day but I guess government were actually aware of that happening... Yesterdays Indy page 17 According to TB, at least another 3 years wait.............. Subject to funding, the laws should be introduced three years after the appointment of specialist advisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
