<p>The Equality Act 2010 prohibits unlawful discrimination against persons with protected
characteristics, including on grounds of nationality. The Equality Advisory Support
Service (<a href="http://www.equalityadvisoryservice.com/" target="_blank">http://www.equalityadvisoryservice.com/</a>)
is provided to offer advice to people who may have experienced discrimination in England,
Scotland or Wales, and an equivalent service is provided by the Equality Commission
for Northern Ireland (<a href="https://www.equalityni.org/Individuals/I-have-a-work-related-problem"

Home Office has published statutory codes of practice for employers and landlords
on how to avoid unlawful discrimination whilst conducting statutory right to work
and right rent checks under immigration legislation on GOV.UK. These can be found
