answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/12/2016 answer text <p>I raised the issue of South Korea's dog meat trade with the South Korean Ambassador on 12 September. As I said during the Westminster Hall debate on the dog meat trade in South Korea on 12 September, high-profile global events such as the Olympic Games can be a catalyst for positive change. The South Korean government will be aware that the high profile of the Winter Games could cast a spotlight on issues such as the dog meat trade.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 16/12/2016 12:05:13 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/12/2016 answer text Discussions on transparency and corruption have formed part of our bilateral dialogue with the Republic of Korea. The Kim Young Ran Law, introduced earlier this year in South Korea and aimed at curbing excesses of hospitality and gift-giving, used the UK’s Bribery Act as a reference. This followed collaboration between the UK and the Korean authorities, including Korea’s Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (ACRC). Future plans include the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Serious Fraud Office and Korea’s Supreme Prosecutor’s Office on enhancing cooperation. Projects aimed at helping businesses and media stakeholders in Korea tackle corruption are also using British anti-corruption standards as guidance. answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 16/12/2016 11:58:37 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma
