All-Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism
The All-Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism is a group in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The group exists to "To combat antisemitism and help develop and seek implementation of effective public policy to combat antisemitism".[1] The group's co-chairs are MPs Catherine McKinnell (Labour) and Nicola Richards (Conservative) and the president is former Labour MP Lord Mann.[2]
The group commissioned the All-Party Parliamentary Inquiry into Antisemitism in 2005. The inquiry panel, chaired by former Europe Minister Denis MacShane, gathered written and oral evidence on antisemitism in Britain and published a report of their findings on 7 September 2006. The panel's recommendations included improved reporting and recording of antisemitic attacks; a crackdown on anti-Jewish activity on university campuses; and improved international co-operation to prevent the spread of racist material online.[3]
In 2012, John Mann commissioned an all-party parliamentary inquiry into electoral conduct, based on a recommendation from the antisemitism report of 2006. That inquiry panel was chaired by Natascha Engel and its report was published in October 2013.[4]
The Labour government responded to the inquiry twice and the Coalition government has since responded for a third time. Secretariat to the group is provided by the PCAA Foundation.
