answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/05/2016 answer text <p>The Government takes very seriously any allegations of the inappropriate treatment of migrants or refugees, and we would urge any evidence substantiating the allegations to be made available to us and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). We note Turkey’s strong assurances about the treatment of migrants and refugees in its camps and removal centres. And also note the recent agreements reached betweenTurkey, the European Commission and the UNHCR, providing them with access to the Düziçi Camp and Kirklareli Removal Centre, and the UNHCR’s positive view following its initial visit. We will be following the outcome of future visits closely.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 27/05/2016 10:58:13 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
