Answer
My Department has not allocated any funding to the Cordoba Foundation in any of the last 10 years. However, I understand the organisation did receive some funding indirectly under the last Labour Government through their allocations to local authorities under the Prevent programme – a scheme which was widely criticised. We refocused the Prevent strategy in 2011 to ensure that we target resources better.
