answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text I recently raised human rights issues with the Qatari Government during my visit to Doha on 15 October, and the issue of migrant workers was raised with the Emir of Qatar during his visit to the UK on 28-30 October. The Government welcomes in particular the serious manner in which the Qatari Government is responding to concerns about the treatment of migrant workers, and supports Qatar’s intention to reform the current labour law. We continue to encourage the Qatari Government to address human rights concerns and we stand ready to support those efforts where we can. answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 18/11/2014 14:46:20 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
