Clause 1 - Discrimination: private clubs
Sex Discrimination (Clubs and Other Private Associations) Bill
4:45 pm
Mr David Wright (Telford, Labour)
I assure the hon. Gentleman that I would be sitting in the bar with him, because my golf is appalling. One of my friends told me that I spend more time digging additional bunkers on courses than completing rounds of golf. The hon. Gentleman and I would be sharing a dram in the club house, while those who could play, be they men or women, progressed round the course.
The CIU has written to me and we have met to discuss the Bill. The CIU supports the Bill wholeheartedly and I welcome the progress that the union has made. I look forward to seeing the Bill come forward, if we continue to pilot it through the House.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 1 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
