The Office of the First Minister/Deputy First Minister has commissioned the Institute for Conflict Research (ICR) to conduct research into how statutory bodies considers Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans People (LGBT) issues in the development or policy and practice under Section 75.
Research aims
The aim of this research is to provide a broad evidence base to assist statutory bodies in effectively considering LGBT issues in the development of policy and practice.
The research also aims to identify extant barriers, difficulties and challenges experienced amongst LGBT communities with the public sector in relation to accessing goods, facilities and services. Through the research it is also hoped that examples of good or better practice within the public sector will be identified.
