The Impact

This article examines the process of the Employment Equality Review of the Northern Ireland Fair Employment legislation currently being undertaken by the Standing Advisory Commission on Human Rights. The article suggests key issues to be undertaken by the review both in terms of its processes and also in terms of the legislation's weaknesses. Specifically the article addresses affirmative action, contract compliance and several of the legislation's explicit and implicit exemptions. Finally the article considers the impact and limitations of two government policy initiatives which should address the issue of religious and political inequalities — the Policy Appraisal and Fair Treatment Guidelines and the Targeting Social Need spending priority. Throughout the article some suggestions for reform are made.
