Answer
Compliance with Windsor Framework Article 2 is a UK Government commitment. It is only for Departments where implementation falls within the devolved space.
Whether the relevant equality law provisions are contained in a single act or several pieces of legislation has no impact on compliance with Article 2 of the Windsor Framework.
