sentences:  In August 2017, the Swiss Federal Council expressed opposition to a motion proposed by the Conservative Democratic Party which would force the confederation to count and register hate crimes committed against members of the LGBT community.It argued it would be too difficult to keep track of these crimes, as it is not always clear if the victim's sexual orientation or gender identity was a factor.However, the National Council voted in September 2019 to support the motion, by a vote of 97–94.
