The UK remains deeply concerned by the ongoing persecution of Rohingya Muslims in Rakhine State and allegations of human rights abuses. UK Ministers and our Ambassador have called on both civilian and military Minsters in the Government to urge a restrained security response, an independent investigation into allegations of human rights abuses, and for the immediate resumption of access for humanitarian aid. The Government of Burma has committed to restoring humanitarian access and investigating allegations of human rights abuses. Humanitarian access has improved somewhat but some restrictions on travel for international staff and on conducting needs assessments remain in place, affecting the quality and quantity of assistance that can be provided. The UK continues to raise these issues with the government of Burma at every available opportunity.<\/p>

The UK does not provide funding directly to the Government of Burma.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4137", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rory Stewart"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Penrith and The Border"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Rory Stewart"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-03-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-03-20T17:21:21.84Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-03-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Burma: Rohingya"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps her Department is taking to ensure that UK aid to Myanmar reaches the Rohingya people in the Rakhine State.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4394", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Imran Hussain"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bradford East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Imran Hussain"} ], "uin" : "67510"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/706308", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/706308/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

We note with concern the statement made on 6 February by Adama Dieng, the UN Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide, responding to a report published on 3 February by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, which detailed a number of serious cases of human rights violations against the Rohingya by Burmese security forces.<\/p>

We have long had concerns about the systematic discrimination against the Rohingya Muslim community in Rakhine. The UK has been at the forefront of efforts to resolve the recent violence there. I visited Burma in November 2016 where I pressed the Burmese Government to de-escalate its security operations and launch a credible investigation into reports of human rights violations. The Foreign Secretary, my Rt Hon. Friend the Member for Uxbridge and South Ruislip (Mr Johnson) also visited in January and raised the same points. While Mr Sharma raised the same concerns with HE U Kyaw Tin in the margins of the UN Human Rights Council in February.<\/p>

We are now pursuing a robust resolution at the Human Rights Council in Geneva to renew the mandate of the UN Special Rapporteur, Yanghee Lee, who has been instrumental in shining a spotlight on human rights in Burma, including in Rakhine. Her latest report is expected to issue shortly. We also support the Rakhine Advisory Commission led by Kofi Annan, which is mandated to provide advice on a long term solution to reconciling inter-communal strife in Rakhine. This Commission is due to present its findings in the summer.<\/p>

We agree with UN Special Adviser Dieng that the interim report of the Rakhine Investigation Commission into human rights violations in Rakhine since 9 October is not credible, including the methodology by which it determined there was insufficient evidence to take legal action over reports of sexual violence. It is at odds with a number of reports and testimonies from various human rights organisations to the contrary, including authored by the UN. The Burmese Government has now delayed the publication of the final report pending further investigations. We will await the final outcome of these investigations before making a judgement on its overall findings.<\/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" : "2017-03-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "HL5688"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-03-14T17:16:42.21Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-02-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Burma: Rohingya"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty\u2019s Government what is their response to the statement by the UN Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide on 6 February, that (1) the scale of violence alleged to have been perpetrated by the Burmese security forces against the Rohingya community amounts to \"dehumanization\", and (2) the existing government of Burma commission is not a credible option to undertake a new investigation into allegations of human rights abuses in Rakhine state.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/738", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Alton of Liverpool"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Alton of Liverpool"} ], "uin" : "HL5687"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/691900", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/691900/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

I also lobbied other senior Ministers for a full and independent investigation into all reports of human rights violations.

We have called repeatedly for an independent investigation into allegations of human rights violations in Rakhine.

We support the Rakhine Advisory Commission led by former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, which is due to report in the summer. This has the support of the Burmese Government and the international community, and therefore represents the most realistic way forward.<\/p>

We are concerned by UN reports of human rights violations committed by the military in Rakhine state. We understand that since 9 October at least 66,000 refugees have fled across the border into Bangladesh.<\/p>

We have repeatedly urged for a restrained security response in Rakhine, an independent investigation into allegations of human rights abuses and the immediate resumption of humanitarian access. During his recent visit to Burma, the Foreign Secretary, my Rt Hon. Friend the Member for Uxbridge and South Ruislip (Boris Johnson), met State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi as well as military-appointed Government Ministers, and expressed our deep concern about the current situation in Rakhine and the situation of the refugees. The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my Hon. Friend the Member for Reading West (Alok Sharma), raised this situation in Rakhine with the Burmese Speaker of Parliament when he visited London on 24 January 2017. I also raised these issues with Burmese Ministers during my visit to Burma last November.<\/p>
