And since we have an obsession in the public sector with Equalities legislation are there any figures that demonstrate whether fatalities resulting from the Liverpool Care Pathway were fair and equitable?
Was the Liverpool Care Pathway applied to everyone regardless of gender, ethnicity, disability etc?
Or were particular ethnic groups or people with disabilities unreasonably targetted to receive this programme of "care".
Note: under Equalities legislation if there is no evidence that a programme was fair and equitable it is automatically found in law to have been discriminatory - and therefore claims of discrimination are found to be valid.
