Proceeding contribution from Lord Mackay of Clashfern (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Equality Bill.


Equality Bill

My Lords, the amendment that requires to be withdrawn is the one put forward by the noble Baroness, Lady Turner. Before she says what she wants to do about it, could I be sure that I have understood the Minister correctly? With respect to my Amendment 125A, does "sexual orientation" in the Bill mean sexual orientation or does it extend to sexual practice?
