The delegation will be meeting community leaders and prominent members of the community at the Banqueting Hall, Civic Hall, Leeds on Friday from 3pm to 6pm.
Councillor Javaid Akhtar, Chair of the Liberal Democrat Council Group said, "Both Councillor Hussain and I welcome the Muslim Council of Britain making the effort to come and talk directly to community leaders from across the city, to hear for themselves what is happening here in Leeds. The Council plays an important role in the lives of the Muslim population and perhaps now more than ever they need to listen to voices from all sections of the community."
