The British Government remains fully committed to action to alleviate the Rohingya crisis and regularly engages with the Government of Bangladesh, which is generously hosting close to 1 million refugees. On 20 August, I wrote to Bangladeshi State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam to underline the UK's support and to welcome the Government of Bangladesh's continued commitment that any returns must be safe, voluntary, dignified and in accordance with international humanitarian principles. The British High Commission in Dhaka is also engaging regularly on this issue with the Government of Bangladesh. <\/ins><\/p>

The UK recognises the economic burden faced by Bangladesh and will remain a leading donor. We have committed £129 million to the crisis so far and will announce further funding shortly. The UK also remains committed to supporting a political solution that enables safe, voluntary and dignified returns to Myanmar. This will involve working with regional partners to deescalate the current conflict in Rakhine State.<\/ins><\/p>

The proportion of people aged 65 or over in the private rented sector has remained broadly stable at 8-9 per cent since 2014/15.<\/ins><\/p>

We know that security of tenure is a concern for many in the private rented sector, including older renters. That is why the Government announced in April that it proposes to create new rules around ending a tenancy by reviewing. Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988. These proposals are currently subject to consultation until 12 October and accompanied by a package of court reforms to make the system faster and simpler. The Government\u2019s proposed measures will provide greater certainty for tenants and make the housing market fit for the 21st century.<\/ins><\/p>

We are deeply concerned by Iran's steps to reduce compliance with the JCPoA, including its recent announcement on suspending limits on nuclear research and development, and urge Iran to uphold the agreement in full. This third step away from its commitments under the nuclear deal is particularly disappointing at a time when we \u2013 and our European and international partners \u2013 are working hard to de-escalate tensions with Iran, which includes our coordinated action to protect international shipping and ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.<\/ins><\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4210", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-09-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "true", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1144177/answer/previousversion/133942", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4210", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-09-09T16:23:49.487Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ], "questionFirstMinisteriallyCorrected" : [{"_value" : "2019-10-01T10:46:18.357Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-09-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Iran: Nuclear Power"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what progress the Foreign Secretary made during his discussions with European partners in Helsinki at the informal meeting of Ministers for Foreign Affairs (Gymnich) on 29 to 30 August on how to preserve the Iran nuclear deal and to protect international shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/259", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Marquess of Lothian"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "The Marquess of Lothian"} ], "uin" : "HL17665"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1140647", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1140647/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Implementing the Hodeidah Agreement remains a critical step towards the broader peace process.

Further UN-led negotiations between the parties are needed to agree local security force arrangements before redeployment can take place and we encourage all parties to continue to constructively engage with the UN Special Envoy Martin Griffiths and General Lollesgaard on this matter. Implementation of the Hodeidah Agreement is part of critical step moving towards the broader peace process.
