Proceeding contribution from Lord Slynn of Hadley (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 July 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Equality Bill [HL]..

Equality Bill [HL]

Would not much of the difficulty that has been raised be solved if instead of the words,"““with a view to the creation””," the Bill read something like,"““The Commission shall exercise its functions, recognising the importance of””?" What followed would then seem acceptable to most people. We should take away ““creation”” and insert ““recognising the importance of””.
