Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, with reference to the letter to him of 27 September 2018 from Marom UK on Marom Budapest and its community centre Aurora, what response he has made to that letter.

FCO officials met the Board of Deputies of British Jews on 9 January. The Board of Deputies made representations on behalf of the Marom organisation about the Aurora building in Budapest. A substantive response reflecting the outcome of the meeting was sent on 15 January 2019, that underlined that the UK remains committed to strengthening international co-operation across Europe to tackle antisemitism and ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust are never forgotten.

We welcome Hungary's stated commitment to address and eliminate antisemitism and all forms of racism.
