Equality Bill
12:00 pm
John Howell (Henley, Conservative)
May I ask some questions on age discrimination? I will begin with age discrimination outside the workplace in relation to goods, facilities and services. At the moment, we are in a position of wanting to have our cake and eat it. We would all want that. We want to remove negative discrimination but retain the best of positive discrimination, for example, bus passes and Saga Holidays. I do not quite understand how that fits together and where you draw the line. The conflict comes out most in what we heard this morning from the insurance industry. Could you give an overall picture of your thinking on that?
