Motion Text
That this House recognises that caste-based discrimination potentially affects tens of thousands of UK residents; therefore views with considerable concern the delayed implementation of section 9(5) of the Equality Act 2010; and so calls on the Government to implement that subsection as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event before 31 December 2015.
