	answer text	<p>The Foreign Secretary has not had a discussion with his Chinese counterpart about the reports of trespassing. An arrest took place on 11 January outside the British Consulate General on an area of land under lease by the British Government from the Hong Kong Government. This area of land is adjacent to the pavement, continuously open to the public, and does not carry any special status under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. A small static protest has been ongoing outside the British Consulate General in Hong Kong for a number of months. This is consistent with the UK’s support for peaceful and lawful protest. We have repeatedly made clear that we support the right to peaceful and lawful protest. It is essential all arrests and police actions are made according to the law and conducted in a fair and transparent manner.</p>
