The HRA 1998 is likely to have an impact on areas of discrimination which are either not currently protected or are inadequately protected. For example, the right to have respect for one’s private life (Art 8) is likely to encompass sexual orientation, sexual activity, dress codes and family life—such as working hours. Article 9 embodies the right to religious and political freedom. However, Art 14 does not provide a free-standing right not to be discriminated against. It prohibits discrimination solely in relation to the enjoyment of the substantive Convention rights.
