The Runnymede report yielded sixty recommendations, many later implemented

Evidence

Islamophobia: A Challenge for Us All was published in autumn 1997 and was launched at the House of Commons by then-Home Secretary Jack Straw. It made 60 formal recommendations and many of these were in due course implemented, though not necessarily – of course – as a direct result of the commission’s report. — A. Hussain, N. Meer, Framing Muslim Integration, 743

The evidence collected is documented in ten chapters and contains sixty recommendations. The report begins by describing the nature of anti-Muslim prejudice and draws a key distinction between closed views of Islam on the one hand and open views on the other. — Runnymede Trust, Islamophobia, 24
