Our Hate Crime Commission

Our Hate Crime Commission

Reports of Hate Crime across the UK are rising, and Westminster is no exception. 

That’s why we’ve launched an independent Hate Crime Commission to better understand and tackle the issue. 

Cllr Ian Adams, Westminster City Council’s Cabinet Member for Public Protection and Licensing, said:

“We’re determined to tackle hate crime in all forms which is why we’ve set up a dedicated commission to provide us and our partners with advice and recommendations on how best to tackle this growing and insidious problem.

This is an issue affecting all society, but we’re proud to be the first local authority to set up an independent Hate Crime Commission.” 

What is hate crime?
