Proceeding contribution from Lord Pendry (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Equality Bill (HL).

Equality Bill [HL]

I am grateful to the Minister for her very thoughtful response to my amendment and to the noble Lord, Lord Lester, for his intervention. I make no apologies for putting down the amendment. I recognise that many others may wish to join the queue of those who want to be mentioned in the list on this part of the Bill. I hope that some of those ““play”” groups will make representations after this debate. Before Report stage, perhaps the Minister will think of a way in which to appease their problems. I certainly recognise the strength of the arguments against the amendment. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. Clause 48 agreed to. Clause 49 agreed to. Clause 50 [Section 49: exceptions]:
