Equality Commitment

Invest NI is working towards creating a successful economy in Northern Ireland that will provide equal opportunities for all citizens. We are fully committed to equality of opportunity across all areas of the organisation.

We comply with Section 75 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 which requires us to perform our functions in accordance with the principles of equality of opportunity between:

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