answer text <p>We regularly make representations to China on the freedom of operation of UK private enterprises and organisations, including pressing for a level playing field. Our engagement with China aims to enhance market access, improve the business environment for all, and enhance the scope for people-to-people exchanges. Our experience is that freedom of expression and assembly, and the rule of law, are vital underpinnings for long-term prosperity and stability. We believe that, by having a strong relationship with China, we are able to have open discussions on a range of difficult issues.</p><p>​</p> more like this
