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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if the Minister will make representations to the UK Holocaust Memorial Foundation on the potential merits of the Foundation engaging with (a) a variety of members of the Jewish community and (b) representatives of the Buxton memorial against slavery to increase support for that Memorial.

The UK Holocaust Memorial Foundation has engaged extensively with all interested parties, including through two public exhibitions of the proposed designs. The Foundation’s plan is to enhance the setting of the Buxton Memorial.
