This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006 No. 1031
4.—(1) For the purposes of these Regulations, a person (“A”) discriminates against another person (“B”) if he treats B less favourably than he treats or would treat other persons in the same circumstances, and does so by reason that B has—
(a)brought proceedings against A or any other person under or by virtue of these Regulations;
(b)given evidence or information in connection with proceedings brought by any person against A or any other person under or by virtue of these Regulations;
(c)otherwise done anything under or by reference to these Regulations in relation to A or any other person; or
(d)alleged that A or any other person has committed an act which (whether or not the allegation so states) would amount to a contravention of these Regulations,
or by reason that A knows that B intends to do any of those things, or suspects that B has done or intends to do any of them.
(2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to treatment of B by reason of any allegation made by him, or evidence or information given by him, if the allegation, evidence or information was false and not made (or, as the case may be, given) in good faith.
