answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/10/2023 answer text <p>The UK recognises the vital role the Council of Europe has played in preventing conflict within Europe and wider member states since it was founded in 1949 following World War II. The Council's recent work in establishing a Register of Damages caused by the Aggression of the Russian Federation in Ukraine is a good example of how a regional organisation can react swiftly in response to situations of conflict. The work of the European Court of Human Rights and the Committee of Ministers plays an important role in securing rights and freedoms across Europe, including against the threats to democracy at our doorstep.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty question first answered 24/10/2023 16:24:29 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/10/2023 answer text <p>We recognise the significance of the award of the Václav Havel Prize to Osman Kavala and the subsequent PACE debate. The award and the overwhelming vote in favour of the release of Mr Kavala, highlight that Osman Kavala remains in prison despite two separate rulings by the European Court of Human Rights calling for his immediate release, a call that the UK has consistently joined. We will continue to work with Council of Europe Member States including Turkey, to find a solution to the situation.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty question first answered 24/10/2023 16:24:35 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty
