PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Counter-terrorism: Cardiff (3 September 2014)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of the support given to the Cardiff Prevent priority area by the Office of Security and Counter Terrorism.

Asked by:
Stephen Doughty (Labour)

Since the revised Prevent Strategy was published in June 2011, the Home Office has worked closely with local authorities in Prevent priority areas, and
therefore has an ongoing understanding of the effectiveness of programmes in a given area. A monitoring framework to assess the performance of local authority Prevent priority areas has been established giving a systematic overview of all funded posts and projects. This performance monitoring data informs the Government’s report on its counter-terrorism strategy, CONTEST, which is published annually.
