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


Equality Bill

The objective is the same, but we will not put it in the Bill. As I said, I cannot tell the right hon. and learned Gentleman at the moment whether the character of the business will be secondary legislation or guidance, so he may feel that he has to talk. However, we have met Saga; we understand the problems; and we will produce in January a document that makes the position absolutely clear. That is as much as I can say, but I hope it is enough.
