Le gouvernement travailliste, élu en 1997, affirma sa volonté de révoquer cette clause. En Angleterre et au pays de Galles, la Chambre des lords s'oppose toujours à sa révocation. En Écosse, le parlement décida de ne pas tenir compte de l'opposition des lords et révoqua la clause en l'an 2000 malgré une campagne d'opposition de grande envergure menée par l'Église et renforcée par un référendum dont le financement privé donna lieu à une vive polémique. -
