A Bill to provide that certain offences committed towards members of the armed forces shall be treated as aggravated; to prohibit discrimination against individuals in terms of provision of goods and services on the grounds that they are members of the armed forces; and for connected purposes.
House of Commons
15 May 2014
The Armed Forces (Prevention of Discrimination) Bill would treat certain offences against members of the armed forces as aggravated, meaning harsher penalties in those cases. It would also ban discrimination in the provision of goods and services against people simply because they are members of the armed forces. The aim is to protect service personnel from crime and unfair treatment in everyday services.
The bill is currently at the second reading in the House of Commons. It will next be examined in detail in committee before progressing further through the stages of passage.
