Recording Of Islamophobia As A Crime (EDM945)

Recording Of Islamophobia As A Crime

EDM number 945 in 2012-13, proposed by Keith Vaz on 21/01/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Crime, Religion and faith communities and Religious discrimination.

That this House notes the recognition of anti-Muslim sentiment and hate crime in the Department for Communities and Local Government's document Creating the Conditions for Integration; further notes that the document acknowledges the limited collection of data on anti-Muslim hate crime; recognises that currently only the Metropolitan Police Service specifically records this hate crime under the definition Islamophobia as a specific crime flag, similar to anti-Semitism, racism and others, whereas the recording of this crime outside of London is under different recording flags in different constabularies; and believes that all police constabularies should record this hate crime under the same flag, which will bring national uniformity in the recording of this crime and enable authorities to gather data that will aid in tackling this issue.

This motion has been signed by a total of 43 MPs.
