Updated evidence of human rights progress available on human rights regulator’s tracker

From today, organisations and individuals can find evidence of action and progress by the UK and Welsh Governments across 11 new human rights topics on our Human Rights Tracker.

New human rights topics and evidence added to the site's 'Check on Progress' tool include policing, human rights education, data collection and recording, and bullying and harassment in schools.
