Enterprise Bill, Committee Stage
House of Lords
28 October 2015
This briefing supports amendments 48C, 48F, 49C, 56 and 57 to Clauses 13 to 15 and 29 of the Enterprise Bill. The amendments would ensure that the new requirements on regulators cannot be applied to the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s regulatory functions, in order to:
- avoid disproportionate regulatory burdens on the Commission, and
- protect our ability to carry out our statutory functions independently, so safeguarding our ‘A status’ as a United Nations (UN) accredited National Human Rights Institution (NHRI).
