Transsexual equality review needed
20 January 2008  By Kieron Wood
The Equality Authority is seeking tenders for a report on extending equal status legislation to cover areas such as the employment of convicted criminals and discrimination against trans-sexuals.

The Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform is reviewing the grounds covered by the Equal Status Acts, which outlaw discrimination on the grounds of gender, marital status, family status, age, disability, sexual orientation, race, religion and membership of the Traveller community.
