<p>We are concerned about the treatment of Non-Governmental Organisations in Tanzania
and increasing restrictions on the democratic space in which they operate. The UK
Government is working closely with civil society, including through the Department
for International Development Accountability in Tanzania programme, to strengthen
civil society and promote positive and constructive engagement with the Tanzanian
authorities on difficult issues. I raised our concerns regarding the protection of
civil and political rights with the Tanzanian Minister of Foreign Affairs at the Defending
Media Freedom conference in London on 11 July 2019.</p>
