He was assured that this issue had been raised with the Attorney General’s office and that they had been urged to quickly investigate in order to make a robust assessment of the context of the threats. The Colombian government has also assured us that its Ministry of the Interior is working to ensure that adequate protection measures are in place. <br><br>Our Embassy in Bogota continues to urge the Colombian government to take further measures to prevent violence and threats against human rights defenders, trades unionists, civil society and politicians and to promptly investigate human rights violations.</p> answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 09/12/2014 16:41:15 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire previous answer version 32344 answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/12/2014 answer text <p>We have been very clear that Spain’s response to its border recommendations from the European Commission is nowhere near satisfactory. The European Commission itself has expressed its concerns about the lack of progress, as well as Spain’s refusal to share its plans to upgrade border infrastructure with the authorities in Gibraltar. We will continue to work with the European Commission to ensure that Spain completes the required works, with minimal impact on existing traffic and within an agreed timeframe.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 17/12/2014 14:16:51 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
