Proceeding contribution from Lord Lea of Crondall (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.
Equality Bill
Perhaps my noble friend can clarify one further point. There is support on all sides of the Committee for ensuring that when the legislation has been enacted—possibly without the amendment of the noble Lord, Lord Alton—guidance will be given to local authorities on dealing with the ridiculous assertions that some have made. Would that not be normal practice? My noble friend used the word "ridiculous". Cannot my noble friend’s thoughts on local authorities be put into guidance? I would then be happy with the position of my Front Bench.
