HC Deb 13 March 1996 vol 273 cc601-2W
Ms Lynne

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the Government's plans to raise the violation of human rights faced by independent human rights organisations in Indonesia at (a) the forthcoming 52nd session of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights and (b) other inter-governmental conferences. [18849]

Mr. Hanley

We have no plans to raise specific concerns of independent human rights organisations in Indonesia at the 52nd session of the UN Commission on Human Rights. Together with our EU partners we will continue to raise with the Indonesian Government, bilaterally and at other appropriate international fora, our concerns about the human rights situation in Indonesia.
