Written question asked by Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) on Wednesday, 7 December 2016, in the House of Lords. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 21 December 2016. It was answered by Baroness Williams of Trafford (Conservative) on Thursday, 22 December 2016 on behalf of the Home Office.
Fracking: Protest
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what advice they have given, or will give, to the North Yorkshire police and York City Council over their reported inclusion of anti-fracking campaigning and sentiments as requiring monitoring and intervention in their Prevent strategy.
- Answer
-
Prevent is about safeguarding vulnerable people from becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism. Political interest and protest, including in anti-fracking groups operating within the law, are entirely legitimate activities and are not of interest to Prevent. The Home Office and Police continually work together to improve the utility of Counter Terrorism Local Profiles (CTLPs).
