To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the chief executive of the NHS concerning reports that Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust emailed staff advising them not to attend anti-Semitism awareness training.

Ministers meet regularly with NHS England’s Chief Executive and other senior representatives to discuss a wide range of issues. The communication circulated by the Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust requesting that staff did not attend the antisemitism awareness training does not represent the corporate view of the trust. The communication has been rescinded and an apology issued by the trust’s Chief Executive.

NHS England provides funding for antisemitism training, alongside training on islamophobia, across the National Health Service. Employers are expected to encourage their staff to attend these training events.
