Equality Bill [Lords]

I may be on my own, but I happen to have the advantage of being in the right, which is not something that my right hon. Friend can boast. May I simply tell the Minister that, in introducing the regulations to protect gay people from discrimination in the provision of services, facilities and goods, it is important that they be introduced soon, that they be comprehensive and that they do not contain get-out clauses that would provide licences for the continuing practice of prejudice?
