A Bill to make further provision about arbitration and mediation services and the application of equality legislation to such services; to make provision about the protection of victims of domestic abuse; and for connected purposes.
House of Lords
30 April 2013
The Arbitration and Mediation Services (Equality) Bill would clarify how equality law applies to organisations that run arbitration and mediation, requiring fair and accessible treatment for participants. It also introduces protections for people who are victims of domestic abuse when using these services. In short, it aims to ensure non-discriminatory access to arbitration and mediation and to safeguard abuse victims throughout the process.
The bill is currently at the 2nd Reading in the Lords. If it progresses, it will move to committee stage in the Lords for detailed scrutiny, then to Report stage and onward to the Commons.
