Lord Collins of Highbury (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 26 February 2026

Debate

Equality and Human Rights Commission

Contribution

The noble Lord makes a valid point. The EHRC submitted its draft code to Ministers, and we are reviewing it, as I said before, with the care that it deserves. It is crucial that providers have legally robust guidance on how to apply the Equality Act, which is why we are considering the draft code properly. The code will have implications for service providers up and down the country. It is vital that we get this right.
