Consider Commission for Countering Extremism report
In 2021, the Commission for Countering Extremism published a report entitled Operating with Impunity. Hateful Extremism: The Need for a Legal Framework. I recommend that the Home Office consider and respond to this document as a matter of urgency.
- The Home Office stated that the Counter-Extremism sprint has concluded and the Commission for Countering Extremism's report helped inform its findings (Manchester Arena Inquiry Recommendations Dashboard, Cabinet Office, February 2026).
