answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2018 answer text <p>We remain deeply concerned by reports of discrimination and violence against the Ahmadiyya Muslims in Pakistan.

My Ministerial colleague, the Minister of State for Commonwealth and the UN, Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon, discussed the issue of freedom of religion or belief, and the protection of religious minorities, with Pakistan's Interior Minister in February 2018. At the UN Periodic Review of Pakistan's human rights record in November 2017, the UK called on Pakistan to strengthen protection of minorities and establish an independent National Commission for Minorities.</p> answering member constituency Cities of London and Westminster answering member printed Mark Field question first answered 13/07/2018 13:22:49 answering member 1405 label Biography information for Mark Field
