Pardon of homosexuals convicted under the Labouchere Amendment and establishment of the National Day for Computing Motion

This house recognises:

-That an estimated 49,000 British citizens were convicted under the Section 11 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885

-That though individuals prosecuted under this Amendment have been pardoned, a majority of the people it negatively affected have not

-That these convictions were immoral and disrupted the work and lives of many individuals viewed as National Treasures today.

-That thought this Amendment is widely viewed as intolerant today, it’s negative effects still carry on

This motion calls for:

-For Her Majesty’s Government to grant a pardon to everybody convicted under the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885

-For a National Day of Computing to be established on the day of Alan Turing’s death, 7th of June
