Written question asked by Callum Anderson (Labour) on Wednesday, 18 June 2025, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Friday, 20 June 2025. It was answered by Seema Malhotra (Labour) on Thursday, 26 June 2025 on behalf of the Home Office.
Windrush Commissioner
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the reporting arrangements are between the Windrush Commissioner and ministers.
- Answer
-
On 18 June we announced Rev Clive Foster MBE as the new Windrush Commissioner. Rev Foster is a senior pastor at the Pilgrim Church in Nottingham with deep personal connections to the Windrush generations through his parents who migrated from Jamaica in 1959, so brings both lived experience and professional expertise to this crucial role.
Once the Commissioner formally starts his role, we will work with him as he establishes his office, sets his priorities, agrees the mechanisms by which he will interact with both the Home Office and wider government.
It is expected that the Commissioner’s reporting arrangements will mirror those already in place for existing Home Office appointed Commissioners.
