<p>The Government strongly supports the Human Rights Council (HRC), the High Commissioner
for Human Rights (HCHR) and his Office in promoting and protecting human rights worldwide.
This introductory support was underlined during a recent call I had in my capacity
as the UK's Human Rights Minister with the HCHR. The UK supports reform aimed at ensuring
HRC membership elections are competitive, as well as efforts to increase the capacity
of small states to engage with the Council and its mechanisms.</p>
