NAO Disability Equality Scheme and Action Plan 2006-2009


Welcome

This is our first Disability Equality Scheme and action plan (2006-2009) which sets out our commitment to meeting the duty to promote disability equality.

We developed this Disability Equality Scheme and action plan by involving disabled staff in its production. We will continue to involve disabled staff in the monitoring and reviewing of the objectives contained in the action plan.
