Waterways Ireland Equality Plan

Waterways Ireland is committed to equality of opportunity for all existing and potential employees, customers, suppliers, contractors and stakeholders.

Waterways Ireland is committed to Equality for all.

In carrying out its functions, powers and duties it is fully dedicated to the fulfilment of its obligation to have due regard to the need to promote equality of opportunity, as required under Section 75 and Schedule 9 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998.

Waterways Ireland is required to have due regard to the need to promote equality of opportunity between: 

  • persons of different religious belief, political opinion, racial group, age marital status or sexual orientation
  • men and women generally
  • persons with a disability and persons without
  • persons with dependants and persons without


In addition Waterways Ireland is required to have regard to the desirability of promoting good relations between persons of different religious belief, political opinion or racial group. 

The Waterways Ireland Equality Scheme outlines the commitment to Equality matters and how it is proposed to fulfil the obligations when carrying out the Section 75 duties.

As a North-South Body, it is intended that delivery of the measures in our Equality and Disability Action Plans will also fulfil our public sector duties in Ireland in relation to Section 42 of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Act 2014 and the Disability Act 2005.
