Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I will take one further intervention from my hon. Friend the Member for Stoke-on-Trent, Central (Mark Fisher), once I have answered the hon. Member for Somerton and Frome (Mr. Heath). I regard it as a personal responsibility to make sure that once the Bill is enacted, the guidelines are drawn up properly in consultation with outside organisations, including faith organisations, and those who have mounted the most massive campaign against the Bill. I have no problem with that. I want to engage with them as we draw up the guidance, so that we get it absolutely right and ensure confidence in the way that the Bill will be policed. I shall take one further intervention and then I shall press on.
