Proceeding contribution from Lord Boswell of Aynho (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill (HL).


Equality Bill [Lords]

The hon. Lady is deploying arguments that, as far as I know, are precisely those that were advanced by Ministers in the other place against the inclusion of sexual orientation as a criterion—the position was reversed as a result of the wisdom of the other place. Why is she persisting in making those arguments, and what is the difference between the two criteria?
