§ Mrs. GillanTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations he has made to the Government of Cuba to respect human rights and the conduct of elections. [47386]
§ Mr. Tony LloydWhen my noble Friend the Under-Secretary of State meets visiting Cuban Government Ministers and the Cuban Ambassador, she raises political reform and human rights among other issues, in line with the EU Common Position on Cuba. She will do so again when she meets the Cuban Vice Foreign Minister, Isabel Allende, in London on 29 June. Our Embassy in Havana regularly raise these issues with the Cuban Government.
