Equality Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Equality Bill.
Employers cannot ask questions such as my hon. Friend describes to discriminate against a person, but they sometimes ask questions with a view to making a reasonable adjustment, so that they are aware of the situation before employing somebody. Her point about people with mental health problems is important, and it might well need to be addressed in the Constitutional Renewal Bill.
