Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans the Government has to ensure equitable access to security funding for religious institutions.
All places of worship, other than the Jewish community, have access to the Places of Worship Scheme that funds protective security measures to counter hate crime. The Jewish community has access to separate funding that was put in place following a series of terrorist attacks against Jews and Jewish targets in Europe. The Government regularly considers the range of threats to our places of worship from hate crime.
