Faith Matters: Finance

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 11 April 2025 to Question 43565 on Faith Matters and Tell MAMA: Finance, if she will publish correspondence between her Department and Faith Matters in relation to her Department's funding offer for the 2025-26 financial year.

Answered by Alex Norris

The Government made available £500,000 for funding Tell MAMA in 2025/26 to support their work, subject to signing of a Grant Funding Agreement. This was in addition to the new Combatting Hate Against Muslims fund, announced on 2 April.

It would not be appropriate for the department to publish private correspondence between the department and existing or prospective funded partners.
