Answer

A

Explanation

This question is asking for the name of a law formed in the UK in 2010, which combined 116 pieces of legislation with the purpose of protecting citizens from discrimination. Both Geneva Conventions and Hague Convention are international laws related to humanitarian issues and the conduct of war, so they can't be the answers. Also, The Human Rights Act was passed in 1998, not 2010. Therefore, the only plausible option left, and endowed with exactly those characteristics, is the Equality Act.
