PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
PART 3 OF THE EQUALITY ACT 2006 (20 November 2006)

That this House welcomes Part 3 of the Equality Act 2006, which outlaws discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation in the provision of goods, facilities and services; and remains concerned that further exemptions to the proposed regulations beyond the doctrinal exemption proposed by the Government would itself be discriminatory, would undermine the purpose of this House in passing the Act and would stigmatise lesbian and gay people, causing them significant and unnecessary distress.
