Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill — After Clause 54 — Intimidatory Offences Aggravated by Sex or Gender — 28 Mar 2022 at 19:56

The majority of MPs voted not to create a new offence of harassment aggravated by hostility towards sex or gender but to require the Government to respond, within a year, to a recommendation that "sex or gender should not be added as a protected characteristic for the purposes of aggravated offences and enhanced sentencing".

MPs were considering the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill.[1][2]

The motion supported by a majority of MPs in this vote was:

  • That this House disagrees with the Lords in their amendment 72B and proposes amendments (a) and (b) in lieu.

Lords amendment 72B began:[4]

  • After Clause 54, insert the following new Clause—
  • Intimidatory offences aggravated by sex or gender
  • (1) A person must not commit an act—
  • (a) which amounts to harassment or intimidation of another,
  • (b) which he or she knows or ought to know amounts to harassment or intimidation of the other, and
  • (c) which is aggravated by hostility towards sex or gender.
  • (2) For the purposes of this section, the person whose act is in question ought to know that it amounts to or involves harassment or intimidation of another if a reasonable person in possession of the same information would think the act amounted to harassment or intimidation of the other.
  • (3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not apply to an act if the person who pursued it shows—
  • (a) that it was pursued for the purpose of preventing or detecting crime,
  • (b) that it was pursued under any enactment or rule of law or to comply with any condition or requirement imposed by any person under any enactment, or
  • (c) that in the particular circumstances the conduct was reasonable.
  • (4) A person who commits an act in breach of subsection (1) is guilty of an offence.
  • ...

The clause continued with details of provisions relating to sentencing, interpretation and the reporting of statistics.

Commons amendments (a) and (b) in lieu stated:[5]

(a):

  • Page 46, line 35, at end insert the following new Clause—
  • "Response to Law Commission report on hate crime laws
  • (1) The Secretary of State must, before the end of the period of 12 months beginning with the day on which this Act is passed—
  • (a) prepare and publish a response to Recommendation 8 of the Law Commission report on hate crime (adding sex or gender as a protected characteristic for the purposes of aggravated offences and enhanced sentencing), and
  • (b) lay the response before Parliament.
  • (2) In this section “the Law Commission report on hate crime” means the Law Commission report “Hate Crime Laws” that was published on 7 December 2021.”

(b):

  • Page 195, line 27, at end insert—
  • “(ka) section (Response to Law Commission report on hate crime laws);”

Amendment (b) relates to commencement and provides for the provision in amendment (a) to come into force on the day on which the Act is passed.

Recommendation 8 of the Law Commission report on hate crime stated:[6]

  • We recommend that sex or gender should not be added as a protected characteristic for the purposes of aggravated offences and enhanced sentencing.
