HM Prison along with being barred from holding any public office, public service, or
position in the military for the maximum of two months.
SECTION IV
Anyone previously sentenced by the Anti-Discrimination Act must still serve the
remainder of their punishment.
This is simply an amendment to the Anti-Discrimination Act. This is not a get out of
free card for people sentenced under the current Anti-Discrimination Act.
SECTION V
Should a person attempt to defend their actions by claiming it was simply banter, the
victim will be consulted on his/her opinions. If he/she recognises that the behaviour was
banter and decides to drop charges (if he/she already pressed charges), then the accused
person will be declared innocent.
PARAGRAPH FROM THE REPRESENTING MP
This act will expand on the already-existing Anti-Discrimination Act and make it
stronger. Legal definitions are included to end any possible confusion over the previous act,
and this will prevent any loopholes within the original act, should there be any.
