We continue to follow Mr Irving's case closely.

Friend the Member for Whitney (Mr Cameron) did so last year and the Deputy Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Sheffield Hallam (Mr Clegg) discussed it with Prime Minister Modi when they met in August. The Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Runnymeade and Weybridge (Mr Hammond) also raised the case with the External Affairs Minister, Sushma Swaraj in October. Our High Commissioner continues to raise it regularly with the Indian authorities.<\/p>
I have met Mr Irving\u2019s family and therefore appreciate how difficult the last year has been for both him and them. Consular officials have consistently sought to provide assistance to him and the other British nationals involved, as well as their families in the UK. This support included fortnightly visits when they were in prison and liaison with the prison authorities, including the Director General of Prisons for Tamil Nadu, on any welfare concerns. We have also regularly pressed the men\u2019s company, AdvanFort, to honour their commitments to pay the men, provide legal representation and fund their living costs while the legal proceedings continue.<\/p>
We are currently awaiting the outcome of the Supreme Court Appeal hearing and will continue to provide all appropriate consular assistance.

I have raised specific political prisoner cases, but not these two individuals.

Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron) and the then Foreign Secretary, my right hon. Friend the Member for Richmond (Yorks) (Mr Hague) discussed political prisoners with President Thein Sein during his visit to London last year.<\/p>
We welcome the release of thousands of political prisoners under the current Burmese government. However, we remain very concerned by the continued arrests, detentions and sentencing of political activists and we continue to lobby for the unconditional release of all political prisoners.

Paragraph 1224 of the Commission of Inquiry\u2019s report (A/HRC/25/CRP.1) recommends that states and others should provide more support for the work of civil society organisations to improve the human rights situation in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), including efforts to document violations and to broadcast accessible information into each country. In paragraph 39 of his June 2014 report (A/HRC/26/43) the Special Rapporteur notes that the Human Rights Council called on all parties concerned, including United Nations bodies, to consider implementation of the recommendations made by the Commission of Inquiry. The Rapporteur also says that he interprets \u201call parties concerned\u201d as all-encompassing.<\/p>
The UK does not disagree with this interpretation, but it is clear that different parties will have different roles with regard to individual recommendations.<\/p>
The UK has previously funded projects related to the documentation of violations that have been implemented by civil society organisations based in South Korea and we remain open to funding similar projects in the future. We have also worked with international non-governmental organisations and the DPRK\u2019s Korean Federation for the Protection of the Disabled (KFPD) for example to improve the treatment of disabled people in the DPRK. This complements wider international efforts, like those of the US who support broadcasts into the DPRK.<\/p>
