Discrimination Against Catholics

EDM number 1532 in 2006-07, proposed by Lorely Burt on 22/05/2007.

That this House believes that nobody should be subject to unfair discrimination on grounds including, but not limited to, race, sex, sexual orientation, disability, age, gender identity or religion; notes that the laws of the UK continue to discriminate against Catholics in a completely unjustifiable manner; resolves to remove the bar on a Catholic marrying the heir to the throne; further resolves to allow a Catholic diocese to be given the same name as an Anglican diocese; and calls on the Government to include such measures in its forthcoming Single Equality Bill.

This motion has been signed by a total of 48 MPs.
