Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.


Equality Bill

As the successor to Enoch Powell as Member of Parliament for Wolverhampton, South-West, Is the hon. Gentleman really content that new clause 36 would mean that a company with 249 employees would be permitted to discriminate racially against those employees? That would be the effect of the new clause, and I find it outrageous.
