Licensing - Equalities

Aberdeenshire Licensing Board recognises the following equality characteristics which are protected under the Equality Act 2010:

• race (includes Gypsy Travellers)
• sexual orientation
• sex (gender)
• disability
• gender reassignment
• age
• religion or belief
• pregnancy and maternity

The Boards aim to provide excellent services for all. The Boards are committed to building equalities into every part of the licensing process. Like a stick of rock, equalities must be a part of everything we do.
