The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) was passed in 1995. It protects disabled people in:

• employment

• access to goods, facilities and services
• the management, buying or renting of land or property

• education

Some of it became law for employers in December 1996. Others parts were introduced over time. For service providers (e.g. businesses and organisations):

• since December 1996 it has been unlawful to treat disabled people less favourably than other people for a reason related to their disability.
• since October 1999 they have had to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people, such as providing extra help or making changes to the way they provide their services;
• since October 2004 they have had to make reasonable adjustments to the physical features of their premises to overcome physical barriers to access.
