Lord Black said he was today "delighted" with a commitment from the Prime Minister to see the end of "gay cure" or 'reparative therapies'.
In a question and answer session with Pink News Lord Black asked what steps the Prime Minister will be taking to end the sessions which affect many including young, vulnerable gay people.
Lord Black has already committed to introduce legislation in the next Parliament to outlaw the practice.
Lord Black said:
“I’m delighted that David Cameron also agrees with the gay community that ‘reparative therapies’ are profoundly wrong.
“It’s great to hear the Prime Minister- who has been such a strong supporter of LGBT rights throughout this Parliament- commit the Conservative Party to such a tough stance.
“I want to work with parties of all colours in the next parliament to introduce legislation to bring an end to these cruel practices.”
