§ Lord Hyltonasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they are giving support to the legal action brought by Mr. Yassir Al-Sayegh of Bahrain of Bolton, a British citizen now deprived of Bahraini dual citizenship, against the Government of Bahrain for wrongful dismissal from the Housing Bank and for compensation for injuries sustained while in custody in Bahrain, where no charges were brought against him. [HL3695]

§ Baroness Symons of Vernham DeanWe have given Mr. Al-Sayegh as much help and advice as we can. We wrote to Mr. Al-Sayegh in May advising him that there was nothing more that the Foreign Office could do for him beyond what his solicitor is already doing. However, should there be any developments in Mr. Al-Sayegh's case we would of course review this position.
