Since 2012, over 1,300 people have been supported through the Channel programme, which is part of the Prevent Strategy. Channel exists to provide confidential and voluntary support to people who are vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism.

In 2017/18 there were 7,318 individuals referred to Prevent. Of these, 6,356 (87%) were male, and 947 were female (13%). Of all those referred, 3,197 (44%) were referred for concerns related to Islamist extremism, and 1,312 (18%) were referred for concerns related to right wing extremism.<\/p>
We do not routinely collect data on the nationality of those referred to Prevent. A Channel panel will, on a monthly basis, monitor the progress of an individual in receipt of Channel support. When the panel decides that a person has no further terrorism-related concerns they will leave the Channel programme. Of those who were provided with support through Channel in 2017/18, 84% left the programme with no further terrorism-related concerns. Support to address particular non-radicalisation related concerns could continue in some cases and would be managed outside of the Channel programme<\/p>
People in receipt of support from the Channel programme but who drop out may be offered alternative forms of support by the local authority or other providers. In these circumstances, any risk of terrorism that they might present will be managed by the police.<\/p>"}

On 22 January 2019, the Government announced that there would be an Independent Review of the Prevent programme. The purpose of the Independent Review, as set out in legislation, is to review the Government Strategy for supporting people vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism. Work is underway to appoint the independent Reviewer, define the Terms of Reference, and to recruit a secretariat to support this work.<\/p>
To ensure this Review is open, transparent and objective, it will be conducted by a Reviewer who is independent from Government. The team which will support the work of the Review will sit outside the Office for Security and Counter Terrorism, which has lead responsibility for Prevent.<\/p>
Prevent covers a broad remit and this will be reflected in the Terms of Reference. The House will be informed of the arrangements for the Independent Review of the Prevent Strategy, including the Terms of Reference, by 12 August 2019, as required by the Counter Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019 (six months from Royal Assent).<\/p>
This review is an opportunity to further increase the transparency of the Prevent programme and engage with stakeholders. As I said in the House on 22 January 2019, I am happy to take suggestions on the Independent Review from Members of the House.<\/p>

The House will be informed of the arrangements for the Independent Review of the Prevent Strategy, including the Terms of Reference, by 12 August 2019, as required by the Counter Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019 (six months from Royal Assent).<\/p>
This review is an opportunity to further increase the transparency of the Prevent programme and engage with stakeholders. As I said in the House on 22 January 2019, I am happy to take suggestions on the Independent Review from Members of the House.<\/p>
Once the Reviewer has been appointed, that person will have the discretion to decide how to engage stakeholders in the Review and how to draw on expert opinion on the wide range of issues involved in the delivery of Prevent.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1539", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wyre and Preston North"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Ben Wallace"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-06-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "259225"} , {"_value" : "259226"} , {"_value" : "259228"} , {"_value" : "259229"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-06-10T15:38:46.073Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-06-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Counter-terrorism"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the review of the Prevent strategy will be undertaken by an independent reviewer.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4138", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rushanara Ali"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bethnal Green and Bow"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Rushanara Ali"} ], "uin" : "259227"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "http://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&max-ddpModified.=2019-07-03T19%3A55%3A45.935Z&version=1&hansardHeading=Counter-terrorism&max-questionFirstAnswered.=2019-07-15T14%3A51%3A20.95Z", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 155, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
