Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, when he plans to respond to the letter by the hon Member for Birmingham, Edgbaston in her capacity as Chair of the APPG on British Sikhs dated 26 October 2020, on anti-Sikh hate.

This Government abhors all forms of hate crime, including that directed at Sikhs. All hate crime directed at anyone for their race, religion, sexuality, disability or gender identity is treated with equal seriousness.

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government have now responded to the APPG letter relating to anti-Sikh hatred.
