Summary

Launched in January 2005, Improving Opportunity, Strengthening Society sets out the Government's commitment to create strong cohesive communities in which every individual, whatever their racial or ethnic origin, is able to fulfil his or her potential through the enjoyment of equal opportunities, rights and responsibilities.

Improving Opportunity, Strengthening Society: Two years on provides information on the work undertaken over the last year to improve race equality and community cohesion. This report outlines the progress that is being made towards achieving equality in the key public services and in building community cohesion.

A detailed statistical breakdown called 'Race Equality in Public Services' (REPS) is included in the report. This contains in-depth statistical information about performance with a focus on race inequality using data from published surveys and official statistics provided by Government Departments. Analysis of this data identifies trends and gaps in knowledge.
