answer text ​We remain concerned about reports of human rights abuses in Pakistan. Our concerns are reflected in the latest update to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office annual human rights report. We continue to urge Pakistan to honour in practice all its human rights obligations and uphold the rule of law. During his visit to Pakistan in March, the former Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond), raised the importance we attach to safeguarding the rights of all Pakistani citizens regardless of ethnicity, faith or gender. more like this

answer text <p>Contact with the Irish government takes place regularly at all levels. This reflects the close relationship which we now enjoy with the Government of Ireland and the Irish people. Discussions cover all issues, including the impact that the British Government’s proposals for reform will have on Ireland, our closest neighbour and friend. Most recently the Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Aylesbury (Mr David Lidington), visited Dublin on 26 May for consultations on EU reform; the first visit he made after his reappointment following the general election.</p><p>This Government intends to seek reforms in the EU which will benefit not just the UK but all Member States. The Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron), is confident that he can and will succeed in negotiating to reform the European Union and maintain Britain’s position within it. The Prime Minister will meet the Taoiseach for their annual Summit on 18 June which will provide another opportunity for an exchange of views.</p><p> </p>
