The report dated 7th March 2005, by the former chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality, Lord Herman Ouseley, gave a long-awaited response to race relations in Bradford, whilst painting a picture of segregation and also a deep-rooted concern about crime.

Lord Ouseley said there were solutions and he proposed what he called a "people's programme" to bring social harmony to the city. He envisaged a strengthening of partnerships between community groups, better education of diversity issues in schools and a review of policing methods.

Launching the report, Lord Ouseley said it would not offer "quick solutions" or recriminations, but longer-term strategies for healing a fractured city. "The review is about the deep changes in attitudes and behaviour that must be achieved across communities...to bring about changes for all the people in Bradford," he said.
