Working Together To Prevent Terrorism Working Groups

EDM number 2179 in 2005-06, proposed by Diane Abbott on 16/05/2006.

That this House wishes to express its delight at the Government's decision to set up working groups in the wake of the 7th July bombings to devise a practical community-led response to terrorism; agrees that greater community consultation, promoting and developing engagement and partnership between Muslim communities and wider society, is key to combating extremism; notes that working group members came together from a wide variety of backgrounds, traditions and with diverse expertise; welcomes the proposals set out by these groups as they reported last year, but notes with great concern that few of these proposals have been implemented; and calls on the Government to act on this invaluable insight and implement the main recommendations as a matter of urgency.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
