Proceeding contribution from Lord Monson (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 February 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Smoke-free (Penalties and Discounted Amounts) Regulations 2007.

Smoke-free (Penalties and Discounted Amounts) Regulations 2007

The noble Baroness suggested that the staff in prisons, care homes, and so on, might have their human rights violated if they were ultra-sensitive—like the noble Viscount, Lord Simon, who unfortunately has an extreme condition—and they were not able to take a job. Would that not apply equally to chambermaids in hotels who suffered from that condition, or to room-service staff generally?
