Equality and Human Rights Commission: Draft Updated Code of Practice

Contribution

In the other place, the Secretary of State has suggested that the EHRC should focus on providing the required information to the Government, and, as she said, perhaps show “a little less focus on public debate”. Does my noble friend agree?
