Proceeding contribution from John McDonnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.
Equality Bill
Apart from the fact that the Government seem to be isolated in this interpretation of the law, I remind my hon. Friend that in numerous debates in this Chamber he has cited the concept that the other pieces of legislation that we have enacted—on health and safety, criminal law and so on—do apply to ships that pass through British waters. Why, therefore, does this legislative proposal, exceptionally, not apply?
