French law on wearing religious clothing

It seems that the first form of the rule is found in the "circular" published  by the Minister of Education, Francois Bayon, on September 20, 1994.  That original circular is found in French and in English at the end of the introduction of my translation as The Stasi Report, published by William S. Hein & Co. in July of 2005. The resolution regarding symbols indicating religious or political affiliation is included in the conclusion to Stasi's Report. (The entire text is found in French and in English; the introduction deals briefly with the relationship of law and religion in France.)

  The French law banning religious clothing or symbols is available on the web -- in French.   They can write their laws that way if they want to, but I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can find a reliable English translation.

  Here's a link to the French version for anyone who is curious.
