Proceeding contribution from Earl Ferrers (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 11 July 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Equality Bill (HL).


Equality Bill [HL]

The Minister said it was right for the commission to discuss with other bodies a way to put things right. That is one thing, but, as I understand it, the noble Baroness wants people to be able to make a super-complaint and for the commission to have ““super-powers”” to deal with that complaint. That seems to go pretty far, and again brings Big Brother into focus. Here is the commission, sitting down, looking at a market, adjusting it all and telling people what to do.
