Hereford - did the tribunal misread the 2003 act?

[Anglican Mainstream] 04 Aug 2007--The tribubal misquoted section 7 (3) b of the 2003 Regulations. The way that they read it affected their judgement as to whether Reaney received direct discrimination. Reading the regulation properly might lead one to the conclusion that it was lawful, given the Church’s position in “Issues in Human Sexuality”, to question someone about homosexual practice in a manner that they wouldn’t be questioned about heterosexual practice.

Peter Ould says: This was the very ground (sections 97 and 98 of the ruling) on which they ruled that Reaney had been directly discriminated against.
