Proceeding contribution from Lord Mackay of Clashfern (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 9 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill [HL].


Equality Bill [HL]

My Lords, I welcome those developments, which make it possible to examine the provisions of subordinate legislation a good deal more fully than was possible in the past. I agree that there are difficult questions in drafting the regulations that will implement the amendments if they become part of the Bill. I assume that the Minister will undertake that nothing in the regulations will criminalise the practice of a person’s faith in relation to the matters that may be the subject of the regulations.
