    Yesterday I was pleased to host members of the Gypsy, Traveller and Roma communities as they launched Operation Report Hate in this, national hate crime awareness week. We learned that a shocking 98% of GTR respondents to a recent survey had experienced discrimination. Could the hon. Gentleman please tell me what he is doing to raise awareness of such disgusting xenophobic abuse?

    The research found that Gypsy, Traveller and Roma (GTR) children remain overrepresented in the youth justice system and continue to have worse outcomes and experiences of custody. […] The crux of the issue, Kate Green said, was that the youth justice system still does not record the number of GTR children and therefore face no scrutiny in addressing poorer outcomes. She explained that the poorer outcomes experienced by GTR children has been a problem for a long-time, and used data from the Irish Chaplaincy’s research ‘Voices Unheard’ which found in 2011 that a significant proportion of GTR prisoners suffered mental health issues.
