answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/09/2014 answer text <p /> <p>The Home Office does not routinely comment on individual cases. This is because the Home Office has obligations in law to protect this information. The Liberation and Justice Movement of Sudan has not been proscribed by the UK. Individuals associated with the Liberation and Justice Movement would not necessarily be denied entry based solely on their association with it.</p><p /> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 22/09/2014 11:35:21 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates

It would therefore not have been appropriate for DFID to place a copy of it in the Library of the House, although my previous answer did make clear that the Noble Lord could obtain a copy of the document by requesting it from the TCI Government.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Freedom of Information requests cover documents held by Her Majesty’s Government. DFID therefore sought the consent of the TCI Government before agreeing to release the TCI document.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Northover question first answered 11/08/2014 10:32:12 answering member 2539 label Biography information for Baroness Northover
