Proceeding contribution from David Heath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill.


Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

: I, too, am glad that the right hon. Member for Manchester, Gorton (Sir Gerald Kaufman) is back in his place. Was it not the case that the illustration that he gave in support of the Home Secretary’s proposals had absolutely nothing to do with the Bill? It could not have been affected in any way by the new offences that will be put on the statute book. It underlines the need for a proper anti-discrimination act, which we still await.
