Today is the day of the Court Hearing into the Libraries appeal. The litigants' skeleton argument essentially rehashes the arguments that failed in the lower court. An interesting feature is that the Commission for Equality and Human Rights has decided to intervene. This will not be an oral contribution, just a written submission. This will be the first Appeal Court hearing since the Public Sector Equality Duty was changed in April, so I assume they regard the case as possibly setting an important precedent, although I feel it is actually quite Brent specific.
