Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (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]

We believe that we have made this clear but I am happy to look at the wording and see whether it does exactly what we believe it does. I apologise for that rather inelegant way of expressing it. I was grateful to the noble Lord for indicating that he accepted that collective worship was important and for identifying some of the difficulties which I went on to expand if we were not to include the curriculum and if we were not to have expressed it in the way that we have.
