In March 2021, the Scottish Government made a commitment to introduce a new Human Rights Bill for Scotland. This Bill would incorporate 4 major United Nations human rights treaties directly into Scots law, making it much easier for ordinary people to name and claim their basic rights.

2 years on from that announcement, we’re still waiting for the consultation on this Bill.

Join this short online webinar to find out what the Human Rights Incorporation (Scotland) Bill is, and why it matters- for you, for the people you work with, and for everyone in Scotland. Find out about the progress which has been made so far, and what still needs to be done to make the Bill a reality.

There will be plenty of opportunities for you to ask questions and share your own views.

We want our events to be accessible to everyone. Please email Rebecca@hrcscotland.org as soon as possible if you have any accessibility requirements.
