# The Disability Discrimination (Private Clubs etc.) Regulations 2005, Regulation 9: Persons who are likely to become guests


(1) Where an association has a practice, policy or procedure which makes it impossible or unreasonably difficult for disabled persons, in comparison with persons who are not disabled, to be invited as guests of the association, it is the duty of the association to take such steps as it is reasonable in all the circumstances to take in order to change that practice, policy or procedure so that it no longer has that effect.
(2) Where an auxiliary aid or service would—
(a) enable disabled persons to be invited as guests of the association; or
(b) facilitate disabled persons being invited as guests,
it is the duty of the association to take such steps as it is reasonable in all the circumstances to take in order to provide that auxiliary aid or service.
(3) It is unlawful for an association to discriminate against a disabled person by failing to comply with a duty imposed on it by this regulation in circumstances in which the effect of that failure is to make it impossible or unreasonably difficult for the disabled person, in comparison with persons who are not disabled, to be invited as a guest of the association.
