HL Deb 24 June 2002 vol 636 c123WA
Lord Campbell of Croy

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, in future legislation introduced by them, they will keep measures on disability separate from those on other subjects such as age and gender. [HL4580]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Work and Pensions (Baroness Hollis of Heigham)

Disability discrimination rights are dealt with separately in existing legislation. The structure of future legislation is ultimately a matter for Parliament to decide.
