Here is a short summary of the provided document:

Summary:

The Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) has improved its equality practices and completed an action plan with the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) to address concerns over its Public Sector Equality Duty (PSED) compliance. The SQA committed to completing outstanding Equality Impact Assessments and improving its approach to assessments for new policies. The EHRC found that the SQA had not been routinely assessing the impact of its policies and practices, and has now completed the review of its outstanding assessments and developed training and guidance for future assessments. The EHRC is satisfied that the SQA has met the terms of the agreement and is consistent in its conduct of Equality Impact Assessments.
