Proceeding contribution from Baroness Afshar (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
What happens in the cases of strictly observant Muslims where it is impossible to get to the household to find out what is going on and it is impossible for the women to get anywhere to state their aims? That seems to be discrimination on the grounds of their faith. Is that addressed?
