Equality shake-up set to modernise law

The findings of a major investigation into the causes of discrimination and inequality in society will feed into powerful new legislation administered by the UK's single equality commission.

The Equalities Review will be chaired by Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) chief Trevor Phillips and the findings will be used to modernise the law, which will move towards a Single Equality Act.
