Proceeding contribution from John Denham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill.
Racial and Religious Hatred Bill
The point is not about race, to which we shall doubtless revert in the debate. The right hon. Gentleman’s criticism of the drafting of the Bill was that it asked people to look inside others’ heads to work out the effect of an action. Precisely the same test applies in the 1986 Act. If he thinks that it cannot be done, does he believe that the 1986 Act is flawed?
