Proceeding contribution from Stephen Doughty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 July 2013. It occurred during Debate on bill on Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill.


Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill

I concur with the Minister on the Equality Act. Indeed, I referred to it a number of times in Committee and have done so in debates in the House. Is it not the case that the Equality Act balances protected characteristics, such as those of religious belief and sexuality?
