Cardiff University event - 10/04/2019

We have been made aware that an event is due to take place at Cardiff University this weekend.

To be clear: this is not a Cardiff University organised event. The event has been organised on behalf of an external organisation with two external speakers. The event has not followed our booking procedure.

Differing and often controversial views can be brought forward, listened to and challenged at universities.

Our processes ensures that all reasonable steps are taken to ensure that – within the law - freedom of speech is secured.

However, as this event has not followed our procedure for carrying out relevant due diligence, we have taken the decision not to allow it to go ahead.
