Paul Farrelly

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations the Government have made to the Colombian Government asking them(a) to bring to justice those involved in the death of Mr. Jeremy Parks and (b) to establish the facts behind his death. [20755]

Mr. Bradshaw

We are liaising closely with the judicial authorities in Colombia. The tragic death of Mr. Jeremy Parks is being investigated by the Technical Investigation Corps of the Fiscalia (The Prosecutor's Office), under the supervision of a magistrate. This is the normal procedure in cases of violent or unexpected death. The magistrate' s report has not yet been finalised.
