Promoting Multiculturalism

EDM number 1816 in 2007-08, proposed by Keith Vaz on 17/06/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Equality and Ethnic groups.

That this House believes that multiculturalism is the bedrock for a diverse and inclusive society; further believes that achieving social cohesion depends on sections of society respecting the cultural heritage of others and recognising the principle of being free to follow one's own culture and beliefs while respecting those of others; therefore commends the National Assembly Against Racism's new campaign One Society, Many Cultures to inform people about the meaning of multiculturalism; and calls on the Government to make a robust case for promoting equality and the benefits of multicultural diversity in Britain.

This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs.
