    Consultation description

    The Department for Communities is taking forward this Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA) consultation seeking views and comments from interested parties on potential equality implications arising from an option it is considering, to cease funding for the Employment Support Scheme. This is being considered in response to the constrained financial position the Department is facing as a result of the recent budget allocation.
