§ Mr. VazTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, how many representations he has received about the denial of human rights in Scotland; and which organisations made these representations.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonThis information is not available. My right hon. and learned Friend receives a large number of representations from individuals and organisations covering a wide range of subjects. While a number of these could no doubt be regarded as alleging breaches or denials of human rights, such representations are not separately identified and details of their origin and number cannot therefore be provided.
