Equality Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Thornton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Equality Bill.
The noble and right reverend Lord makes a good point—a point I was trying to make—that you cannot always legislate against what people might decide to do. You have to make sure that your guidance and the clarity of your legislation is adequate and serves its purpose. The Bill already does that. The noble Lord, Lord Lester, read out that part of the Bill and I could not see how it did not cover the anxieties expressed by the noble Lord, Lord Alton.
