What action is the Welsh Government taking to ensure that faith groups help to inform and shape its strategies on tackling extremism?

Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children | Answered on 02/12/2016

The Welsh Government engages with a range of partners, including those faith groups represented on the Faith Communities Forum, which is chaired by the First Minister.
The Forum facilitates dialogue between the Welsh Government and the major faith communities on matters affecting the economic, social and cultural life in Wales.
In addition, there has been engagement with specific faith groups in Wales to discuss the issues of extremism and Islamophobia, content from which will be taken into account when developing the new curriculum for Wales.
