The government is not proceeding with some recommendations aimed at reducing Islamophobia by changing the way terrorism offences are framed. Multiple outlets report the government is “baulking” or not adopting proposals that would remove or alter references to religious motivation within terrorism laws. The coverage characterises the recommendations as among the more contentious elements of an Islamophobia response package, with the government choosing not to make the suggested legal adjustments. While the reports focus on what the government is not implementing, they indicate that the review and subsequent proposals sought to address concerns that existing legal approaches could be interpreted in ways that single out religious groups. The outlets agree on the broad point that the government overlooks or declines to adopt these specific changes, though they do not provide extensive detail in the shared excerpts about the exact wording of the laws or the full set of recommendations. Overall, the reporting frames the issue as a policy and legislative decision that affects how “religious motivation” is treated in counter-terrorism law, amid wider efforts to respond to Islamophobia.
