The responsibility for achieving both our legal duty on equality and realising the ambitions of this strategy lies with the whole organisation, with every officer and councillor having a role to play.
Delivery of the strategy and action plan will be overseen by the strategy manager. They will report to the senior leadership team on progress of actions and impact, through the annual Equality Information Report.
The Equality Information Report will also be considered by Cabinet. The report includes data on our recruitment, workforce, customers, tenants and wider demographics of the city, as well as data that shows the patterns of socio-economic and health inequalities in the city. Although there are a range of factors that contribute to changes in these data, it provides some insight into how well we are meeting our aims, for example, in the diversity of our workforce.
