Proceeding contribution from Angela Eagle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill (HL).


Equality Bill [Lords]

: I thank the hon. Lady for giving way, and I hope that she will continue to be robust with the reactionary tendencies on the very back of her Back Benches. She is making a case about the increase in funding. In addition to the three strands that have traditionally formed part of the pioneering anti-discrimination legislation of the 1970s, we now have four more. Are not the increases in funding therefore entirely in order, to enable the new protections that are being extended to many of our citizens to become a reality?
