answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2019 answer text <p>The Prime Minister spoke to the Prime Minister of Sri Lanka on the 23 April to offer her condolences on behalf of the UK and offer our assistance. We are discussing with the Sri Lankan authorities what form of support would be most helpful and effective. The Government of Sri Lanka have confirmed that a significant number of arrests have been made and counter-terrorism activities are ongoing. The Sri Lankan Prime Minister and President have both said publicly that there will be a thorough investigation. It is important to let that process follow its course. The UK and other international partners stand ready to support the Sri Lankan authorities.</p><p>The Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism command has dispatched a team of specialists to Sri Lanka. This team includes family liaison officers to support the families of British victims and assist with the repatriation of deceased British nationals. A recent Interpol programme led by UK experts to train 30 Sri Lankan forensic specialists and police officers in disaster victim identification, may also have been of additional support in the aftermath of the attacks.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 02/05/2019 15:27:36 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
