New clause 16 - Guidance on application of prohibition in relation to school transport
Equality Bill [Lords]

Roger Gale (North Thanet, Conservative)
I cannot recall whether the Minister was present on Tuesday afternoon, but I know that the hon. Member for Beaconsfield (Mr. Grieve) was on the Front Bench when I ruled that we should discuss the matter of guidance. We had a considerable debate at that time. I appreciate that these are important issues that probably affect the constituents of every Member of Parliament. I ask the Minister to stick strictly to the matter of guidance, but if she wants to write to hon. Members on the broader issues, that is of course entirely a matter for her.
