More details

In response to the current heightened focus on the social disadvantages faced by ethnic minorities, the Government has announced its intention to hold an inquiry. There is public concern that this inquiry may not result in positive change because the findings of previous inquiries have not been acted upon. Priority should be placed on implementing the recommendations of the Lammy Review and communicating progress with the public before holding further inquiries.
