We continue to raise all our dual nationals detained in Iran with the Iranian Government at every opportunity, and make decisions in line with what we believe will produce the best outcomes in their cases. However, we will not be providing a continuous commentary. We judge this will not be helpful, or in the best interest of each case.</p> answering member constituency South West Wiltshire answering member printed Dr Andrew Murrison question first answered 13/05/2019 16:30:04 answering member 1466 label Biography information for Dr Andrew Murrison
