Overview of the impact of Spending Review 2010 on equalities

The Government is committed to fairness and promoting social mobility. Throughout the Spending Review process the Treasury has looked closely at the impact that decisions may have on different groups in society.

Public authorities are legally obliged to pay due regard to the promotion of equality in carrying out their functions. These duties mean that all public bodies need to consider the impact of their decisions on men and women, people from ethnic minorities and people with disabilities when these decisions are made. This document sets out how the Treasury has done this.

Overview of the impact of Spending Review 2010 on equalities is available in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). If you do not have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer you can download the software free of charge from the Adobe website. For alternative ways to read PDF documents and further information on website accessibility visit the HM Treasury accessibility page.
