I beg to move amendment 37, in clause 18, page 13, line 23, at end insert—

‘(4) If the protected characteristic is religion or belief, for the purposes of subsection (1), and subject to subsection (2), a provision, criterion or practice is discriminatory if it requires persons of B’s religion or belief to act in a way which contravenes the stated doctrinal or ethical teachings of the religion or belief.’.
