I am aware of the limited length of formal permissions granted by Government of Bangladesh to NGOs operating as part of the Rohingya response, and of reports of the difficulty in obtaining these permissions. The International Development Secretary raised these specific concerns with the Government of Bangladesh during her visit to Bangladesh on 25-26 November. I raised our wider concerns regarding humanitarian access to Rohingya refugee camps with Bangladesh High Commissioner Quaunine and Foreign Secretary Shahidul Haque on 2 November, and with Bangladesh State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam during my visit to Dhaka, 28-29 September. The High Commission in Dhaka maintains a regular dialogue with the Government of Bangladesh on the issue of NGO access and the broader effort to support Rohingya refugees.<\/p>

<\/p>

Bangladesh is playing a vital role in supporting the Rohingya refugees who have fled appalling violence in Burma.

\u200bCentral registers of beneficial ownership information or similarly effective arrangements are in place in Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands and Gibraltar.<\/p>

Anguilla and the Turks and Caicos Islands have not yet established a central register or similarly effective arrangement. We continue to monitor progress and to offer support to both these Territories.<\/p>

The UK has been clear that an agreement on returning the Rohingya refugees to their homes in Burma must provide for voluntary, safe and dignified return. I made these points to the Bangladesh High Commissioner Nazmul Quaunine and Foreign Secretary Shahidul Haque when they met on 2 November.

The FCO and its network of Embassies and High Commissions overseas has had extensive contact in the last 12 months with organisations that promote press freedom. This information is not recorded centrally and accordingly it would be impractical to attempt to produce a comprehensive list of such meetings and discussions.

The FCO also supports projects run by organisations that promote press freedom.
