Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 20 December 2018 to Question 202832 on Census: Sikhs, of the 53 participants who took part in the focus groups to consider the possible addition of new tick boxes, how many felt a specific Sikh ethnic tick-box was not acceptable.

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the Authority to reply.
