Religious Hatred

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government, with reference to the command paper Protecting What Matters published on 9 March 2026, which authorities, individuals, groups, organisations, businesses or bodies will provide training to major employers, including the NHS, on preventing and responding to religious hatred.

Answer

It is for individual organisations and employers to determine which training offer and provider is best suited to their sectors. As set-out in Protecting What Matters, tackling religious hatred requires a whole-of-society response, and improving understanding across society of how religious hatred manifests and how it should be addressed is vital.
