HL Deb 01 November 1999 vol 606 cc69-70WA
Lord Moynihan

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What individual cases of human rights dissidents were discussed between the Prime Minister and President Jiang Zemin during his State Visit to London. [HL4355]

Baroness Scotland of Asthal

My right honourable friend the Prime Minister raised general issues of human rights, including Tibet, with the Chinese President, but individual cases were not discussed.

We continue to raise individual cases of concern within the context of the bilateral human rights dialogue with the Chinese Government.
