asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, further to his answer on 8 November, what bodies or individuals are being consulted in the review of the steps which can most usefully be taken to advance racially equal opportunities; when the review will be completed; and whether he will then make a statement of its findings.

No consultations have yet taken place but this will be undertaken where and when it is appropriate. This is a continuing part of the work of the Department which is not subject to any particular completion date or statement of findings.
