answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/12/2014 answer text Estimates of the number of political prisoners in Burma vary. Organisations such as the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (Burma) (AAPPB) monitor the figures and provide regular status updates. Their latest from October, indicates that there are 75 political prisoners remaining in Burma, down from 2,073 in March 2011. Our Embassy in Rangoon remains in close contact with the AAPPB and other civil society networks to support their work. We continue to press for the unconditional release of all political prisoners in Burma. answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 01/12/2014 17:53:36 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/12/2014 answer text <p>We welcome the Burmese Government’s efforts to develop a comprehensive plan that seeks to address the complex and interrelated challenges in Rakhine. There are, however, some aspects of the Rakhine Action Plan which would, if implemented, undermine the prospects for peaceful co-existence and stability across the State. We have made our concerns on this clear to the Burmese government, most recently when I met with the Minister for Immigration and the Rakhine Chief Minister on 7 October.</p> answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 01/12/2014 17:51:17 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/12/2014 answer text <p>Changing Burma's 2008 constitution to enshrine equal rights for all will be crucial for Burma's future stability. The UK is one of the leading international proponents of such change. Changes to many parts of the constitution are ultimately a matter for the people of Burma to decide directly by referendum. Ministers regularly raise the issue of constitutional change with their Burmese counterparts. The Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron) discussed Burma's constitution with President Thein Sein when they met at the G20 Summit in Brisbane.</p> answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 01/12/2014 17:54:45 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire
