Download or read book The Law of Disability Discrimination written by Ruth Colker and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide students with an in- depth understanding of the ADA, including the sections governing employment (Title I), public entities (Title II), and public accommodations (Title III). The book focuses on the major components of the ADA, with extensive reference to the implementing regulations and accompanying guidance statements--essential building blocks for a complete understanding of the Act. It also covers a wide range of additional topics, such as education, housing, insurance, and the protection of newborns with disabilities. Because the ADA intersects several other federal statutes, such as the IDEA, the FHAA, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, cross- references to these and other statutes are frequently provided. A companion book, The Law of Disability Discrimination Handbook: Statutes and Regulatory Guidance, includes reference material relevant to interpreting federal law prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability. The Handbook includes the statutory language of each of the five Titles of the ADA. In addition, with respect to Titles I, II, and III, the Handbook includes the regulations and interpretive guidance promulgated by the EEOC and the United States DOJ. The Handbook also includes reference material relevant to interpreting Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Fair Housing Act Amendments of 1998, as well as excerpts from the Civil Rights Act of 1991. Further, the Handbook contains the text of the IDEA, the Department of Education Regulations implementing the IDEA, and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

Download or read book Disability Discrimination written by Brian John Doyle and published by Jordan Publishing (GB). This book was released on 2003 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 imposed new duties on employers, trade organizations, service providers, property owners, educational bodies and public transport providers. It created new individual rights for disabled persons and opened up possibilities for new forms of litigation. Disability Discrimination: Law and Practice is the definitive guide to how this important legislation operates in practice in the UK. This new edition has been updated to take account of the many important developments in this area, including: new case law on the meaning of disability, and the employment and trade organization provisions in the Act; the prospective implementation of the remaining aspects of Part III of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 which will place further duties on service providers from October 2004; the Special Educational Needs and Disability Act 2001 and its effects on schools, colleges and universities in relation to disabled pupils and students; and the likely reforms to the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and the Disability Rights Commission Act 1999 following the Government's response to the Disability Rights Task Force report, its proposals for implementing the EC Employment Directive and the Disability Rights Commission first statutory review of the legislation. The book is an invaluable reference dealing with the developing body of law regulating disability discrimination for all those advising businesses, service providers and other organizations, and those representing disabled people in court or tribunal proceedings. The full text of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and the Disability Rights Commission Act 1999 is included.
