Our investigators are looking at:

  • Whether Pontins has committed race discrimination against Gypsy and Traveller guests, prospective guests or their associates in how it provides its service.
  • Whether Pontins’ booking policies directly or indirectly discriminate on the basis of race, including a requirement that guests, or prospective guests, are on the electoral register.

Whether Pontins’ intelligence, information and record-keeping systems are operating in a way that discriminates directly or indirectly on the basis of race.
