The United Nation's Peacebuilding Commission (PBC) is already concerned with ensuring the international community is making efforts to prevent conflict in countries on the PBC agenda. The PBC's mandate is to focus political attention on fragile states, bring together relevant international actors, and mobilise resources in order to help countries recover from conflict and avoid a relapse into conflict.<\/p>
There will be a thorough review of the UN's Peacebuilding Architecture, including the PBC, in 2015, which will be an opportunity to improve the way in which the whole UN system helps countries affected by conflict and determine the most effective role that the PBC can play in the future.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3839", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Warsi"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Warsi"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-07-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-07-10T13:37:49.2290273Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-07-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "UN Peacebuilding Commission"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they will propose that the United Nations Peace Building Commission's mandate be enlarged to include conflict prevention and that its resources be increased.", "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" : "HL795"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/65266", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/65266/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
We strongly support the UN Human Rights Council resolution of 27 March establishing an international investigation, and welcome the subsequent appointment of the investigative team. We will continue to urge the government of Sri Lanka to cooperate fully with the Office of the High Commissioner and with this investigation, and to ensure that those engaging with the investigation can do so without fear of intimidation or reprisals.
In parallel, we will continue to urge the government of Sri Lanka to take meaningful, concrete steps to implement fully the actions called for in the March 2014 Human Rights Council resolution and in the recommendations of its Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC).<\/p>"}

The general policy of the Home Office is not to disclose personal information about another person. This is because we have obligations under the Data Protection Act and in law generally to protect this information.
The UK has a proud history of granting asylum to those who need our protection and we consider every claim for asylum on its individual merits.
We believe that those with no right to be in the UK should return to their home country and we will help those who wish to leave voluntarily. However, when they refuse to do so we will take steps to enforce their removal at the earliest opportunity<\/p>

The Friends of Syria are committed to supporting the moderate Syrian opposition who are fighting extremists, and who are in favour of a pluralist and democratic future for Syria. Iran's substantial military and financial support for Assad and his regime runs counter to this objective. The only sustainable solution to the crisis in Syria is to reach a negotiated political transition by mutual consent - this is the core principle contained in the Geneva Communiqué. We believe that Iran can and must play a constructive role in Syria by committing its support for negotiations between the Assad regime and the opposition on a transitional authority for Syria by mutual consent. Iran could also play a constructive role in ensuring humanitarian aid is delivered without hindrance across Syria, as required by UN Security Council resolution 2139. The Friends of Syria are committed to these goals.<\/p>
