Proceeding contribution from Baroness Williams of Trafford (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 March 2019. It occurred during Debate on bill on Offensive Weapons Bill.


Offensive Weapons Bill

I am trying to say that we are trying to come to a workable solution, particularly for the Sikh community. On the question of other legislation, what immediately springs to my mind is that there was of course the exemption for Sikhs on mopeds who were wearing a turban. So we are, I hope, trying to reach a solution that will work for the Sikh community.
