HC Deb 12 December 1963 vol 686 c121W
83. Mr. Abse

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the termination of employment of British citizens of the Jewish faith upon the demand of Arab States, he will introduce legislation rendering it unlawful to end contracts of service in this country by reason of objections by an employer to the religious belief held by an employee.

Mr. Godber

I do not think it would be appropriate or practicable to seek to deal with the problem in this way.
