Petition:
The Petition of Miss Elizabeth Funke Obisanya, & others
Declares that Section 19B of the Race Relations Amendement Act 2000, grants it unlawful for Public authorities in carrying out any functions of the authority to do any act which constitutes discrimination.
However in Section 19C (1) Section 19b does not apply to –
(a) any judicial act (whether done by a court, tribunal or other person); or
(b) any act done on the instructions, or
on behalf, of a person acting in a judicial capacity.
The Petitioner therefore requests that the House of Commons remove all Exceptions from the Race Relations Act as not doing so means that the Law contravenes articles 1,2,3,7,8,10 of the Human Rights Declaration 1948, as any court could effectively override the Race Relations Act.
