Thanks Dave for locating the correct address for the Bill - anyone
managed to read it yet and unpack the implications?
The contents list is:
1 Discriminatory advertisements
2 Group insurance
3 Application of sections 19 to 21 of the 1995 Act to transport vehicles
4 Discrimination by public authorities
5 Private clubs etc.
6 Discrimination in relation to letting of premises
7 Power to modify or end small dwellings exemption
8 Duties of public authorities
9 Codes of practice
10 Generalisation of section 56 of the 1995 Act in relation to Part 3
claims
11 Police
12 Meaning of disability
13 Minor and consequential amendments
14 Short title, interpretation, commencement and extent
So there certainly seems to be some relevant sections.
