Proceeding contribution from Lynne Jones (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill.


Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

I welcome the provisions against incitement to hatred on grounds of sexual orientation, but is not it illogical for the Government to introduce those measures without also legislating against incitement to hatred on grounds of transgender issues? Will my right hon. Friend look at that matter and perhaps meet me and other hon. Members who are concerned about it with a view to introducing appropriate amendments in the other place?
