Proceeding contribution from Lord Low of Dalston (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, before the Minister responds to the noble Lord, Lord Hunt, perhaps she can say whether she means that the regulation-making power will be used to update the schedule—I think that she used the words ““update the schedule””—so that the additional bodies with whom she wishes to have discussions with a view to bringing them within the public sector equality duty will not just reside in regulations, but will be introduced into the schedule by the regulation-making power. Is that what she had in mind?
