In addition, an employee or service user may bring a discrimination claim under more than one ground, which the courts can then consider consecutively, where appropriate.</p> answering member constituency Saffron Walden answering member printed Kemi Badenoch question first answered 10/03/2021 10:13:23 answering member 4597 label Biography information for Kemi Badenoch
