Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of establishing a dedicated digital online reporting mechanism for victims of transnational repression.

The Government, in consultation with Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP), has assessed that existing reporting channels, including 101 and 999, are the most widely known and easily accessible means of contacting the police, allowing trained professionals to assess reports and refer potential cases of transnational repression (TNR) and foreign interference to specialist teams where appropriate.

The Government will continue to work with policing to strengthen awareness, confidence, and capability in responding to TNR, while ensuring that our approach remains proportionate, effective, and focused on protecting those most at risk.
