Proceeding contribution from Julie Morgan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.


Equality Bill

The general feedback that I have received from many bodies is that children and young people's views are not given enough due attention. Those children who are active in such movements see it as a slight that they are not included in the Bill. I understand the reasons behind that decision, because of the many exceptions that would have to be made, but the bodies and young people involved do not understand. We need to discuss that subject at greater length.
