A major British government-funded programme, costing £150 million (€166 million) this year, which seeks to turn young Muslims away from extremist organisations must not be used to spy on minority communities, a cabinet minister has said.
Under the programme known as "Prevent", local authorities fund moderate Muslim organisations, though critics argue it is creating surveillance concerns among Muslims, and divisions between Muslims and other minority groups.
The Institute of Race Relations last month claimed it is being used to track the movements of individuals and list the identities of those attending meetings. It says this information is then shared with the police and security services.
