Proceeding contribution from Baroness Howe of Idlicote (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Equality Bill.
Equality Bill
My Lords, I will say briefly that I, too, strongly agree with the noble Lord, Lord Lester, and with my noble friend. If I am picking up the vibes correctly, the Minister may be able to answer the query. It may be thought that small charitable bodies that might be asked to undertake work via a public authority would run into a problem because of this. From reading the Bill, I cannot see that. However, I will leave it to those who have more detailed knowledge. I am not in favour of this amendment.
