Equality Bill — Schedule 22 — Statutory provisions — 2 Dec 2009 at 19:00
Robert Wareing MP, Liverpool, West Derby voted with the majority (Aye).
I beg to move, That the Bill be now read the Third time.
I am pleased with the scrutiny and attention that hon. Members have given this important Bill. It has been considered for a considerable period in Committee and it has been improved in significant ways as a result of its passage through the House, including in the addition of protection against dual discrimination, the extension of the socio-economic duty to Scotland, the limits on questions about disability that can be asked by employers when recruiting, and clarification of the pregnancy and maternity provisions. It can be further improved if the research that we have commissioned from the Equality Commission on caste can, as we have asked, be completed quickly so that if there is need, we can ban caste discrimination through measures in the other place.
The House divided: Ayes 338, Noes 8.
