In December 2014 Paul Givan MLA launched a consultation for his proposed ‘Conscience Clause’. If introduced this would allow businesses to refuse service to same couples, based only on religious belief against what is referred to as promoting same sex relationships. This would mean that a restaurant or B&B could refuse service to a same sex couple or a landlord could refuse a tenancy to a same sex couple and their family.
