Schedule 1 - Gender recognition panels
Gender Recognition Bill [Lords]
2:45 pm

Mr Tim Boswell (Daventry, Conservative)
I am grateful to the Minister for his explanation. He may or may not know that one member of my family is a member of the Bar and in the Government legal service, so, although I am not canvassing for a job for her, the point arises about somebody's appointment as a salaried person. I realise from the Minister's slight eyebrow lifting that if she were a Government employee she could not possibly be on any panel while she so remained.
The Minister's reply was perfectly satisfactory; I would have expected nothing other, and I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
