To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has made a recent assessment of the adequacy of legislation relating to peaceful protest.

Expedited post-legislative scrutiny of the Public Order Act 2023 began last month, and we are also carefully considering the Court of Appeal judgment in relation to Serious Disruption Regulations.
