Hate Crime: Prosecutions
The question
To ask the Solicitor General, what steps she is taking to help ensure the effective prosecution of people who commit hate crime.
Answered by Lucy Rigby
Hate crime is truly abhorrent and can have a devastating impact on victims and their communities.
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) takes such offending very seriously.
The CPS works closely with the police to build robust cases and secure prosecutions for these offences.
