The Council has adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism in full, including all of its examples.
The Definition was adopted on 20th April 2022.
The Council has told Campaign Against Antisemitism that it does apply the Definition in disciplinary matters.
This information was obtained after Campaign Against Antisemitism submitted a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on 12th August 2021, to which the Council responded on 7th September 2021.
As part of its response, the Council provided its Equality Strategy and minutes of a Council meeting on 20th April 2022, which show that the Equality Strategy including the Definition, was adopted.
No incidents relating to the Council’s officials or councillors have been reported to us, however we recognise that antisemitism is chronically underreported and it is possible that there are incidents that have not been reported. To report an incident, please contact us.
