Lessons 25 Main Provisions of the Equality/ Anti-Discrimination Legislation Learning Intentions Students will know about: The main acts comprising the equality/anti-discrimination legislation in both jurisdictions Resources Copies of the Key Points of the legislation in your jurisdiction, one for each student Copies of the Scenarios on pages 97-98, one for each pair of students Activity one Begin by asking the students what they already know about the legislation. Do they know the names of any of the Acts? What do the Acts prohibit? In what situations do they offer protection? What does provision of services include? Give out a copy of the Key Points of the legislation for your jurisdiction to each student (pages 94-96). Give them a few minutes to read through the points and to ask questions for clarification if needed. You could check for things such as: Did anything surprise them? Was anything difficult to understand? What was their main impression of the law as it relates to equality and anti-discrimination? Two points you may need to clarify for them are: Employment equality and anti-discrimination law covers not just work, but training and vocational training Provision of goods and services covers a wide range, including education, health services, shops, restaurants, bars, night clubs, rental accommodation and clubs. Then give each pair a copy of the scenarios on pages 97-98 and ask them to work in pairs to match up the scenarios with the relevant law or legal provision. (You may wish to divide the scenarios up between the class so each pair have less scenarios to match up.) They may also refer back to the Discrimination and Harassment handout on page 81 for clarification. Check their answers and discuss any questions which arise from them. (The answers for each jurisdiction are given on page 99) sECTION 4 Equality and the Law 93
