We remain concerned by the human rights situation in China, not least all restrictions to freedom of religion or belief.<\/p>
As a member of the UN Human Rights Council, China is bound to respect the international commitments to which it is a party. As such, we consistently call on China to ratify the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights \u2013 we last did so at the UK-China Human Rights Dialogue in April.<\/p>
We continue to raise areas where we assess China\u2019s actions are not in line with either its international human rights commitments or its own constitution. We highlight these, and our broader range of concerns, in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office\u2019s Annual Report on Human Rights and Democracy. We also make representations in international fora such as the UN Human Rights Council.<\/p>"}

On 13 May the House agreed a new set of rules to govern the content of written answers, in response to the introduction of a new electronic system for submitting them. While the digital copy of answers will be the definitive record copy, all written answers will continue to be published, and a signed copy will continue to be sent to the Peer asking the question.<\/p>
These rules make clear that all answers should be complete and comprehensible, and not rely on references to external documents or webpages. They also make clear that supporting documents should be included as attachments, not hyperlinks, and referred to in the answer itself. Any attachments that are included will be available in the Library to be printed out on demand.<\/p>
All of these rules will help to accommodate those without internet access. I will remind all Lords Ministers to adhere to them.<\/p>
