answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p>The Anti-Conversion Bill was presented to the Sri Lankan Parliament ahead of Sri Lanka's general election in 2010. However it did not pass, as Parliament was subsequently dissolved for the election. As a result, the Bill would now need to be re-presented to the Sri Lankan Parliament if it is to be enacted into law. If passed, the Act would have provided privileged status to Buddhism.</p><p>The promotion of human rights, including religious freedom, is at the very heart of British foreign policy. The British Government regularly speaks out internationally to condemn instances of violence and discrimination against individuals or groups because of their religion, regardless of the country or faith concerned.</p> answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 21/07/2014 14:11:15 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/07/2014 answer text <p>Information held centrally by the Ministry of Justice on cracked trial hearings does not include details regarding the occupation of absent witnesses. It is not possible to separately identify trials which crack due to police officers failing to attend court as witnesses. On the occasions when non-attendance of a police officer is the cause, we would expect the prosecutor to raise the matter with the Police force in question. Issues with police witness non-attendance should be discussed by the relevant Local Criminal Justice Board as part of their performance discussions.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 30/07/2014 15:25:34 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
