Following the EHRC’s call for evidence from Premier League clubs to assess their adherence to the terms of the Equality Act, if the EHRC suspect or believe that individual clubs are in breach of the Act 2010, they will consider the use of their statutory powers in order to achieve compliance. All clubs failing to meet the minimum requirements will have until September 2017 to publish their plan of action and timetable for improvement or face an investigation. We will support the EHRC in any action that they take against clubs and sports that are not fulfilling their legal duties towards disabled spectators.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong><br> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 31/07/2017 13:55:10 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
