Proceeding contribution from Baroness Featherstone (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 November 2010. It occurred during Urgent question on Socio-economic Equality Duty.


Socio-economic Equality Duty

I agree. Delivering equality and fairness is a serious matter, and the idea that one clause would make a significant difference is wrong, particularly as it was a tick-box exercise. If it had delivered a measured outcome, I am sure we would be implementing it; as it did not, we are not.
