Proceeding contribution from Kali Mountford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill (HL).

Equality Bill [Lords]

I am trying to gather some understanding of my hon. Friend’s position, especially as she says that we must learn about the experience of such discrimination and the way in which that is qualitatively different from other people’s experience of discrimination, because I do not understand precisely what she is trying to get at. There is also a question of time. We are constrained not only by expectations—not least those of the community—but by the strictures on us due to the need to comply quickly with European legislation. Will she indicate how quickly she might reach that position of understanding?
