I move amendment No. 13:

In page 21, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following:

"(b) by the insertion in subsection (3) after 'Equal Treatment Directive' of 'or any other Directive referred to in the Title to the Equality Act 2004, '.

This amendment was tabled on Committee Stage. It is our contention that the Bill as phrased is contrary to EU law and does not take into account the Marshall No. 2 case. I ask if the Minister of State has examined this amendment.
