Commission on Religion and Belief in British Public Life would like to know people’s views on the role of religion and belief in British public life with particular regard to media coverage of religion and belief issues, social action, developments in UK education systems, civil and criminal law, and dialogue and engagement.
It has been convened by the Woolf Institute, Cambridge, and would welcome your views on the topics with which it is dealing, as outlined in the consultation document at http://www.corab.org.uk/national-consultation.
The Commission is independent and is chaired by the Rt Hon Baroness Butler-Sloss of Marsh Green GBE, formerly president of the Family Division of the High Court. The steering committee consists of Dr Shana Cohen, Lord Harries of Pentregarth, Dr Edward Kessler MBE (vice-chair) and Professor Tariq Modood MBE.
You are welcome to focus on topics and questions which are of particular interest to you – you are not expected to reply to each and every single question in the document.
Responses can be of any length and can be accompanied by copies of relevant documents. In its eventual report the Commission will acknowledge all the responses which it receives and will almost certainly wish to quote from some of them directly.
They should be sent by 31 December to [email protected] or by post to the Woolf Institute, 12-14 Grange Road, Cambridge CB3 9DU. Enquiries should be addressed to Mohammed Aziz, head of the Commission Secretariat.
