Countering Terrorism

The grave consequences of terrorist acts means we have to be vigilant and work together to intervene early to combat terrorism, and safeguard vulnerable people from extreme racist, political or religious ideologies. A number of complex factors can combine to draw someone into extremism, so it is crucial that we work together across communities and partner agencies to quickly identify those at risk. I will continue to support our work at the local, regional and national scale to prevent terrorism in all its forms, strengthen our communities’ protective resilience, and support those people in West Yorkshire who may have been affected by a terrorist incident.
