Proceeding contribution from Baroness Greengross (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].
Health Bill [HL]
The Equality and Human Rights Commission, of which I am proud to be a member, has an obligation to protect vulnerable groups of people because all its work is underpinned by the Human Rights Act, which was adopted in this country to comply with the European Convention on Human Rights. This is surely a perfect example of a group of people who need to be protected under the convention and our own legislation. I strongly support the amendment.
