<p>The UK has been anticipating this report and is deeply concerned by its findings. Whilst the UK welcomes the UN Secretary General's initial response, we urge the UN to increase its efforts to tackle sexual harassment and will look for the earliest opportunity to discuss this with them. The Foreign and Development Secretaries raised the issue of sexual harassment with the UN Secretary-General last December and the Minister for the Commonwealth and the UN discussed the issue with the Under Secretary-General Head of the UN Task Force on Sexual Harassment in October. Senior officials have also been in regular contact with senior United Nations representatives to push for action to tackle these issues.</p>
