HC Deb 22 May 2003 vol 405 cc978-9W
Mr. Battle

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister how many local authorities employ faith advisers; and if he will list them. [114363]

Mr. Leslie

This information is not currently available. However the Inter Faith Network of the UK has been commissioned by the Home Office, and is working with the Local Government Association, to conduct a survey of inter-faith activity in all local authority areas in England and Wales. This includes relevant work by local authorities themselves. The results will be available in a report to be published before the autumn by the Inter Faith Network.
