Our Chief Executive, John Kirkpatrick, met with Jan Savage, Executive Director of the Scottish Human Rights Commission and Dr David Russell, Chief Executive of the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission. The meeting provided an opportunity to welcome Jan and David to our London office.
Our Chair and Chief Executive also attended a roundtable discussion between the three UK National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) hosted by Lord Ponsonby, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the Ministry of Justice, with responsibility for human rights policy. It was an opportunity for the Minister to discuss priorities and the key role we play in promoting and protecting human rights.
We look forward to continuing to work together with other NHRIs to advance equality and human rights across Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
