<p>I have not had recent discussions with the Chinese Government on allegations of
forced organ harvesting. However, the Prime Minister's Special Envoy on Freedom of
Religion and Belief, Lord (Tariq) Ahmad, set out the Government's position in Parliament
on 25 July. Lord Ahmad said,</p><p>"I note the time and energy that the International
Coalition to End Transplant Abuse in China has dedicated to this issue. Officials
have reviewed the evidence thoroughly. While the evidence is not incontrovertible,
we take these allegations seriously and have consulted the World Health Organization
and international partners. The evidence provided disturbing details about the mistreatment
of Falun Gong practitioners, and raised worrying questions about China's transplant
system. We continue to monitor all available evidence."</p>
