Equality Bill

May I have a go, although I will probably get this quite wrong? In Clause 149: "““A public authority is a person who is specified in Schedule 19””." The definition is extended in subsection (4) to ““certain specified functions””—so it is broken down there. Subsection (5) then defines a public function as: "““a function of a public nature for the purposes of the Human Rights Act””," which has a flexible definition. The power to add to a list of who the public authorities are is the subordinate power, which will be subject to the affirmative procedure, which then gives the flexibility to apply the definition in Clause 149 to particular bodies. I hope that that is right.
