answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/05/2018 answer text <p>The EU-Western Balkans Summit in May and the UK-hosted Western Balkans Summit in July are crucial elements of a busy year of international activism on the Western Balkans. The Government is working closely with the Bulgarian government and the EU institutions to ensure that the London Summit builds on and complements the Sofia Summit. In doing so, we are maximising the impact of our collective efforts to promote economic stability; increase security cooperation; and address political challenges in the region. Progress in these areas will support the Western Balkans countries in moving forward on their Euro-Atlantic accession path whilst contributing to UK security interests.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 10/05/2018 16:39:47 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the phrase "mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs" in their Counter-Extremism Strategy differs in meaning from the phrase "mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs" referred to in their departmental advice for schools, academies and free schools entitled <i>Improving the spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development of pupils: supplementary information</i>; and if so, how.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/04/2016 answer text <p>The Government definition of the phrase “mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs”, as set out in the Counter–Extremism Strategy refers to a mutual respect of the individual regardless of their faith and therefore carries the same meaning and definition as set out in the departmental advice for schools entitled ‘Improving the spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development of pupils’. Individuals in the UK should be treated with mutual respect and tolerance irrespective of their faith and belief based on fundamental values that have evolved over centuries. These are shared values which are rooted in democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and freedom of religion and belief.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 07/04/2016 12:56:51 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
