Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask Her Majesty's Government when they plan to appoint the second independent expert to consider the definition of Islamophobia.
This Government remains committed to stamping out anti-Muslim hatred and all forms of religious prejudice. It is unacceptable for anyone to feel unsafe while practicing their religion and we continue to take a zero-tolerance approach to anti-Muslim hatred.
We will outline our next steps with the review on the Definition of Islamophobia in due course, following the publication of the forthcoming Hate Crime Strategy.
