Equality Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Warsi (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Equality Bill.
My Lords, does the Minister accept that, among other things, the Bill is an opportunity to clarify? As it stands, the position is not clarified, which is why Members around the Committee can refer to so many unusual examples. I think the noble Lord, Lord Lester, referred to them as "ludicrous", but I may be quoting him incorrectly. However, the point is that this is an opportunity to clarify. It may well be that, as it stands, the Bill will not allow such incidents to happen, but could we not use it as an opportunity to clarify and to ensure that they do not occur again?
