Any student journalist who contacts the Home Office press office in relation to a student publication is advised that statistics, departmental announcements, <br>ministerial speeches and quotes, which may assist their enquiries, are available on the government website, gov.uk. We do not have the resources to deal with any student request related to their studies.This is a common approach adopted by other government departments and organisations of a similar size which receive significant media interest.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 30/10/2014 11:37:50 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2014 answer text <p>The UK welcomed President Rouhani’s comments in 2013 that all Iranians, including religious minorities, should “feel justice.” Unfortunately, there has been little noticeable change in the approach taken by Iran’s security and judicial authorities. Discrimination against individuals on the basis of their faith has remained discouragingly widespread.</p><p><br>The Iranian Constitution recognises only three religious faiths other than Islam: Judaism, Christianity and Zoroastrianiam. Christians nevertheless continue to face discrimination; Evangelical Christians, Iranian converts to Christianity and those involved in house churches have been particularly affected. Other minority religious groups have faced similar treatment, and the Baha’i faith – which is unrecognised in Iran - has been particularly discriminated against.</p><p><br>The UK has repeatedly called on the Iranian government to end all persecution of individuals on the basis of their faith, and to guarantee the human rights of all Iranians.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 30/10/2014 14:34:18 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
