Barney McCay appointed to Equality and Human Rights Commission’s panel of counsel

We are delighted to announce that Barney McCay has been appointed as legal counsel to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (‘EHRC’). The panel of counsel plays an important role in helping the Commission to achieve its objectives which include reducing inequality, eliminating discrimination and protecting human rights.

Following an open and transparent competition, the appointments for selected counsel run for four years.

Members of the Commission’s panel of counsel are now the preferred providers of external legal services, including representation and advice, supporting the work of the EHRC across the equality and human rights spheres in domestic and European courts.
