We strongly commended US Secretary of State Kerry for his tireless efforts to deliver a final status deal. Whatever the disappointments of 2014, Secretary Kerry has made it clear that progress was made. But it is vital that Israel and the Palestinians take advantage of any momentum gathered. It is vital that they commit to restarting the process, and focus once again on finding common ground.<\/p>

In December 2013 we led EU efforts to set out an unprecedented package of political, economic and security support that Europe would offer to both parties in the event of a final status agreement. That package remains on the table should the parties return to negotiations. In the meantime, we remain strong supporters of Palestinian state-building efforts.<\/p>

We remain concerned about relations between Eritrea and Ethiopia. We have called on both sides to engage in dialogue and to respect the commitment they made in the December 2000 Algiers peace agreement to refrain from using force against each other.

The British Government believes that a central register is the best way to improve transparency of company ownership and control. The Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories are separate jurisdictions with their own elected governments under which they are responsible for the bona fides and beneficial interests of companies registered in their jurisdiction. At the December Joint Ministerial Council the UK and Overseas Territory Leaders agreed to work together in raising international standards and to meet again to take forward implementation of the G20 principles on beneficial ownership. Dialogue has continued since the Joint Ministerial Council and we plan to meet again in the coming weeks.<\/p>

All jurisdictions, including the Overseas Territories and the Crown Dependencies, will be subject to assessment against the international standards for anti-money laundering set by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). This will specifically look at the effectiveness of each country\u2019s regimes, including those for beneficial ownership. These assessments will take place over the coming years and the results of them will be publicly available.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3474", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Anelay of St Johns"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-03-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-03-16T12:15:20.383Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-03-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Companies"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty\u2019s Government what steps they are taking to verify the bona fides and relevant beneficial interests of companies registered in the Crown Dependencies and British Overseas territories.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2018", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Hylton"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Hylton"} ], "uin" : "HL5470"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 8, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
