  Racial and Religious Hatred Bill
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>Those voting No agreed that the "Lords amendment No. 2" to the <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld200506/ldbills/031/06031.i-i.html"> Racial and Religious Hatred Bill</a> should stand.  This was against the wishes of the Government who had their <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200506/cmbills/120/amend/60131m01.htm"> own amendments</a> prepared.</p>
  
  <p>"Lords amendment No. 2" was debated and passed in the Lords on <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld199900/ldhansrd/pdvn/lds05/text/51025-12.htm"> 2005-10-25</a>.  There was a vote on "Lords amendment No. 1", after which this one passed automatically.</p>  
  
  <p>"Lords amendment No. 2" deleted section 1(b) from <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200506/cmbills/011/06011.i-i.html"> the original text of the Racial and Religious Hatred Bill</a>.  Section 1 said: 
  
  <p class="indent">1. Hatred against persons on racial or religious grounds Part 3 of the Public Order Act 1986 (c. 64) is amended... [to] (a) creates offences involving stirring up hatred against persons on religious grounds, and (b) amends provisions relating to offences involving stirring up hatred against persons on racial grounds.</p>
  
  <p>The Public Order Act 1986 was printed before  1988 and so has not online on the <a href="http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts.htm"> Office of Public Sector Information website</a>.</p>
