- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to introduce legislation to give the diversion programme announced on 26 August 2026 a statutory basis.
- Answer
-
At the Five Country Ministerial in Sydney, August 2026, Five Eyes partners agreed to the Home Office proposal to establish a Countering Violent Extremism Hub in London. This was agreed as a practical way to strengthen our existing cooperation on shared countering violent extremism challenges. The detailed design of the Hub is now being developed with Five Eyes partners, including its Terms of Reference.
The Home Office also announced the development of a new online interventions programme, beginning with a pilot to develop and test a rights-compliant, safeguarding-led approach to identifying and supporting individuals vulnerable to online radicalisation at an earlier stage. The detailed design of the programme remains under development. Decisions on matters such as consultation, publication of programme documentation and any longer-term delivery arrangements will be considered as that work progresses
