Proceeding contribution from Meg Hillier (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Charities Bill.


Charities Bill

In my constituency, there are many groups of different faiths, and it would be hard for me to find a single one that did not provide some demonstrable public good other than moral leadership and prayer, to which the hon. Gentleman referred. If I would find that hard in my multicultural, multi-faith constituency, I suspect that that would be true in other parts of the country.
