Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when representatives of the (a) Jain and (b) Zoroastrian community were invited to national events organised by his Department in each of the last two years.

It has not been possible to find out this information. The Department for Transport is an inclusive department and we work with a diverse range of communities and stakeholders. When planning events we work closely with local authorities and other organisations to ensure that representatives of communities that may be interested in attending, including the Jain community and the Zoroastrian community, receive invitations.
