answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2014 answer text <p>There are currently no negotiations for a voluntary code of conduct in the United Nations Security Council to help prevent the use the veto in situations where mass atrocities are taking place. I am of course aware of the proposal put forward by France and think that it offers an important contribution to the wider debate on reform of the Security Council and I welcome the interest that this initiative has created. The United Kingdom wholeheartedly supports the principle that the Security Council must act to stop mass atrocities and crimes against humanity. We cannot envisage circumstances where we would use our veto to block such action.</p> answering member printed Baroness Warsi question first answered 17/06/2014 14:47:12 answering member 3839 label Biography information for Baroness Warsi
