Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness for those two answers, effectively. The latter one is rather illuminating. Will the noble Baroness drop me and other noble Lords a line to confirm that notwithstanding that the Equalities Act does not ab initio apply to neighbourhood forums, it cannot be brought within its scope, so that we have that added reassurance of the thrust of that equality duty? Having said that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
