The Lords votes through the new regulations, despite an attempt to block them by opposition peers.
The regulations were backed by MPs in a vote on Monday, with 277 in favour and 217 against.
Ministers had already tried to ban slow-walking protests by adding measures to the Public Order Act but were narrowly defeated by peers. Urging peers to back her motion, Baroness Jones said this was an "authoritarian law that hands power to decide what is a good protest or a bad protest over to the police and the Home Office".Home Office minister Lord Sharpe called the baroness' motion "highly unusual", arguing it sought "to strike down legislation passed by the elected House and undermine sensible changes, which bring clarity and consistency to the law".
While peers condemned the government's actions in bringing back regulations that had been previously rejected by peers in primary legislation, Labour did not support the fatal motion, because of a convention to accept the will of the elected House of Commons.
