<p>Consular officials, both at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London and at the British embassy in Dubai have been providing Mr Margetts with consular assistance since his initial detention. Mr Margetts' welfare continues to be our main priority and I would like to reassure you that consular officials continue to monitor his case closely and will follow up on any welfare concerns.</p><p>Consular officials most recently spoke to Mr Margetts on 8 October. During this call Mr Margetts informed consular officials that he did not need a visit and that he would call when he needed assistance. He also requested that consular officials send a message to your office, which they have subsequently done.</p>
