§ Beverley HughesThe trial of the confidential hotline ran from May to July 2002. A full evaluation of this trial has now taken place and following consultation recommendations are about to be put to Home Office Ministers. I am therefore unable to give further details at this time.
Once Ministers have had the opportunity to review the findings I will write again to the hon. Member.
