To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the existing policies of European Union states to promote the integration as citizens of all members of immigrant communities, across ethnic and religious boundaries; and whether they consider any such policies to be relevant to the United Kingdom.

The Government participates in exchanges of good practice on integration with other EU Member States at meetings of the EU network of National Contact Points on Integration. In relation to our domestic policies on integration, I refer the Noble Lord to the Written Ministerial Statement on Integration by my Rt Hon Friend the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government on 18 December 2014, Official Report, column 110WS.
