Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether he plans to implement the recommendations of the Law Commission report entitled Hate crime laws: Final report, HC 942, published in December 2021, through the Criminal Justice Bill.

We are grateful for the detailed consideration the Law Commission has given to its review of hate crime laws.

In April 2023, the Government published a response to Recommendation 8 on misogyny as a hate crime. We will respond to the remaining recommendations later this year.
