Proceeding contribution from Evan Harris (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 April 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.


Equality Bill

The suggested words, which appear in what would be clause 210(5) if we accepted the amendment, are completely new. At no point, because no hon. Member supported a free-standing religious harassment provision, was this debated in Committee. It was not even fully debated in the House of Lords. That is a symptom of what we have seen in the passage of this Bill, which is being rushed through at the very end of this Parliament.
