Asked by: Baroness Blower (Labour - Life peer)
Question to the Home Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the recent police operation at the Kurdish Community Centre in London on relations with that community.
Answered by Lord Sharpe of Epsom - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)
It is a fundamental principal of British Policing that the police are operationally independent of the government, and it is for them take decisions on enforcement action.
No assessment has been made at this time on community relations following the police operation at the Kurdish Community Centre in London.
