answer text <p>I met with Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Samaraweera at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on 28 February. I also wrote to both the Foreign Minister and Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe on 20 April. In the meeting and subsequent letters, I recognised the Sri Lankan government's efforts to improve the human rights situation in Sri Lanka. I also welcomed their co-sponsorship of UN Human Rights Council Resolution 34/1. I encouraged accelerated progress towards fulfilling the commitments their government made in co-sponsoring Resolution 34/1 and raised the importance of the return of all military-held private land, the delivery of devolution through constitutional reform, the establishment of credible transitional justice mechanisms and the development of new counter-terrorism legislation in line with international human rights standards.</p><p>The UK is committed to the full implementation of Resolution 34/1 and will continue to support the Government of Sri Lanka in its efforts to promote reconciliation and human rights.</p>

answer text <p>We are deeply concerned by reports of the detention and ill-treatment of over 100 men in Chechnya because of their sexual orientation. The Minister of State, The Baroness Anelay of St Johns, released a statement on 7 April outlining the Government’s concern at the reports and called upon the Russian authorities to promptly investigate and ensure that perpetrators of human rights abuses are brought to justice. The Foreign Secretary also expressed his serious concerns on social media. Officials from the British Embassy in Moscow reiterated these messages directly to the Russian government on 13 April, and are working with international partners in Russia as part of wider lobbying efforts. The EU made a statement on behalf of Member States at the Permanent Council of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) on 6 April and the UK Permanent Representative to the Council of Europe delivered a statement in the Committee of Ministers on 19 April.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Taxis are considered cars for the purposes of VED. As such, new taxis purchased after 1 April 2017 will be treated under the new VED system. We expect zero emission capable taxis to be available on the market in the second half of 2017. If these are priced at above £40,000 they will be liable for an additional rate in the first five years of the Standard Rate, as with any other car.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is investing to help make taxis greener and cleaner, reaffirming our commitment to improving the UK’s air quality. The Department for Transport announced last month £64 million to promote the take up of zero emission capable taxis in cities across the country.</p><p> </p> more like this
