<p>The decision on whether a country is included in the Annual Human Rights Report
as a Priority Country is based on the human rights situation in the country, assessed
against objective international criteria; the trajectory of change; and the extent
of the UK's work on human rights in that country. The FCO designated 30 Human Rights
Priority Countries in 2016. As we set out then, our expectation is to continue to
focus on those countries for the duration of this Parliament in order to ensure that
the Governments human rights work has the strategic direction and consistency. We
of course continue to monitor the human rights situation in Turkey.</p>
