The only thing you seem to have missed is that you cannot take "no evidence"
as meaning there is not a problem, you have to stop the process, collect the
evidence and then use it to complete the EIA

Subject: Re: Equality Impact Assessment
Dear all
Trying to check my understanding - on a simplistic level -
One undertakes a pre-screening exercise and this raises specific
concerns then one goes into a full impact assessment exercise -
addresses the 'problem' to manage/mitigate the impact - I think I am OK
so far...
If the pre-screening exercise of an event/policy/process does not raise
concerns regarding potential disadvantage or impact, then one goes ahead
and (I guess) reviews the issue after the event to check whether there
had been issues...
Having said all that -
One union locally is challenging this and suggesting that full impact
assessments must be undertaken on everything - surely not practicable or
appropriate ?
Perhaps Mondays event will clarify this !
Dave
