PROJECT D: THE VERIFICATION PROJECT
This phase of the Genetic Discrimination Project
sought to examine in detail and with explicit consent, specific
claims by consumers of differential treatment, and where
possible, to follow these up with relevant third party organisations.
Aims of Verification Project:
- to verify, or not, alleged incidents of unfair
treatment by consumers
- to elucidate the decision-making processes and
justifications of relevant third parties in specific cases of alleged
unfair treatment
Methods: a range of methods were employed where appropriate and feasible, including review of documentation
and interviews with consenting consumers and relevant third party
personnel.
