Traveller Movement submission to the call for evidence into ethnic disparities and inequality in the UK

30 Nov 2020

This submission will address the ethnic disparities and inequalities facing ethnic Gypsies, Roma and Irish Travellers in the UK. Romany Gypsies and Irish Traveller people are protected against discrimination under the Equality Act 2010 in England, Wales and Scotland. Roma are also an ‘ethnic group’ in terms of the law, and therefore protected by equality legislation.
