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


Equality Bill [Lords]

I have been examining the principles that we are debating. Unfortunately, in my position, I do not have the power to do any of the things that the hon. Gentleman would like to be done. When I am sitting on the Government Benches—I think that it will be in the not-too-distant future—I hope that I might have the privilege of dealing with these matters from the Dispatch Box. If the hon. Gentleman and the hon. Member for Leicester, East were to ask me such questions then, I hope that I would be able to reply positively.
