HC Deb 08 December 1965 vol 722 c123W
Mr. Molloy

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what action he is taking to implement the provisions of the Race Relations Act 1965 dealing with racial discrimination.

Sir F. Soskice

Under Section 2 of the Act the first duty that devolves on me is to appoint a Race Relations Board, which will be responsible for setting up the local conciliation committees by whom complaints of discrimination in contravention of the Act are to be considered. I hope shortly to be able to announce the full composition of the Board.
