The British Government is concerned about reports of kidnapping in Egypt. We have been clear throughout recent events in Egypt that freedoms in the Egyptian constitution, including of religious belief, need to be protected as a vital component of a democratic society. Most recently, the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond), and the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my hon. Friend the Member for Bournemouth East (Mr Ellwood), raised the need to protect human rights in their meeting with the Egyptian Foreign Minister on 27 October.

During his meeting with Egyptian Foreign Minister Shukri on 27 October 2014, the Foreign Secretary raised the need to safeguard space for civil society in order to fulfil the Government of Egypt’s stated commitment to inclusive governance. At Egypt’s Universal Periodic Review on 5 November 2014, the UK representative to the United Nations recommended that the provisions in the Egyptian constitution for freedom of civil society in Egypt are fully implemented through a revised NGO law that is in line with international standards.
