§ Lord Moynihanasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they intend to sponsor or support resolutions critical of human rights records in (a) Zimbabwe and (b) China at this year's annual United Nations Commission on Human Rights in Geneva. [HL2296]
§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Baroness Amos)The European Union attempted to table a resolution on Zimbabwe at last year's session of the UN Commission on Human Rights. The EU plans to do so again this year. The EU has no plans to table a resolution on China. If another delegation were to table such a resolution, we would in principle support it.
