In February 2025, the Government published their response to the House of Lords Select Committee on the Holocaust Memorial Bill. In line with an undertaking given to the Select Committee, the Government:

Have submitted representations via the Planning Casework Unit that security should remain a key issue.

Have consulted on security with the Metropolitan Police Service, the National Protective Security Authority, the Community Security Trust, Westminster city council, and the corporate officers of the House of Commons and the House of Lords.

Are depositing consultees’ comments in the Libraries of both Houses, except where security sensitive.

The Government are grateful for comments received from consultees and look forward to continuing close engagement as the programme proceeds.
