<p>The persecution of Christians, and indeed individuals of all faiths or beliefs,
remains of profound concern to us. The scale of this persecution prompted the former
Foreign Secretary to ask the Bishop of Truro to examine how the British Government
could better respond to the plight of persecuted Christians around the world. The
Bishop of Truro published a hard-hitting report with 22 ambitious recommendations.
We have accepted the recommendations in full and work is ongoing to implement them
in a way that will bring real improvements in the lives of those persecuted because
of their faith or belief, Mr Rehman Chishti MP. This work is being overseen by the
Prime Minister's Special Envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief.</p>
