Cults (EDM332)

Cults

EDM number 332 in 2002-03, proposed by Tony Colman on 10/12/2002.

That this House is concerned by the large number of cult organisations operating in the United Kingdom, which under the guise of religious belief or practice, recruit the unwary and vulnerable to membership and exploit them for financial, commercial or sexual purposes; notes action by other European countries to warn potential victims and control the activities of such organisations, in particular the legislation passed by the French parliament in 2001; deprecates the continuing failure of successive British governments over many years to take any action to protect our citizens from the activities of such cults; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to legislate accordingly.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
