Caste Discrimination

EDM number 491 in 2015-16, proposed by Alistair Carmichael on 12/10/2015.
Categorised under the topics of Equality, Human rights and Religion and faith communities.

That this House recognises that caste-based discrimination potentially affects tens of thousands of UK residents; therefore views with considerable concern the delayed implementation of section 9(5) of the Equality Act 2010; and so calls on the Government to implement that subsection as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event before 31 December 2015.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
