<p>The UK unreservedly condemns the use of torture and works closely with international
partners to eradicate this abhorrent practice, including making robust statements
in multilateral organisations and by Ministers. The UK encourages Council of Europe
members to engage fully with the recommendations of the European Committee for the
Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. Where necessary,
the UK Permanent Representative to the Council of Europe will intervene in the Council
of Europe Committee of Ministers meetings to call on member states to engage with
the recommendations of the Committee's reports.</p>
