The Government remains clear that anyone found responsible must be held fully accountable. The UK was signatory to the joint statement on 7 March at the United Nations Human Rights Council which reiterated condemnation of the killing of Jamal Khashoggi. The statement called for investigations into the killing to be prompt, effective and thorough, independent and impartial, and transparent.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 23/05/2019 15:32:40 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan
