Work to combat violence and discrimination against Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) people forms an important part of our wider international human rights work. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office works through our Embassies and High Commissions, and through international organisations, including the Commonwealth, the EU and the UN, to promote tolerance and non-discrimination against LGBT people and to address discriminatory laws, in particular those that criminalise homosexuality.

The UK has been a member of the LGBT core group in Geneva since 2011, playing a key role in passing the UN\u2019s first ever resolution on LGBT rights and recently joined its counterpart group in New York.<\/p>

Within the Commonwealth we continue to encourage the Secretariat and the Secretary-General to do more to promote the rights of its LGBT people. The former Foreign Secretary, my Rt hon friend the Member for Richmond, Yorks (William Hague), wrote to the Commonwealth Secretary-General in March urging him to take concrete action to address this issue within the Commonwealth.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/15", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir David Lidington"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Aylesbury"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr David Lidington"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-09-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "207082"} , {"_value" : "207083"} , {"_value" : "207084"} , {"_value" : "207085"} , {"_value" : "207086"} , {"_value" : "207087"} , {"_value" : "207093"} , {"_value" : "207094"} , {"_value" : "207095"} , {"_value" : "207141"} , {"_value" : "207168"} , {"_value" : "207169"} , {"_value" : "207170"} , {"_value" : "207171"} , {"_value" : "207189"} , {"_value" : "207190"} , {"_value" : "207191"} , {"_value" : "207192"} , {"_value" : "207205"} , {"_value" : "207206"} , {"_value" : "207226"} , {"_value" : "207227"} , {"_value" : "207228"} , {"_value" : "207229"} , {"_value" : "207230"} , {"_value" : "207231"} , {"_value" : "207232"} , {"_value" : "207233"} , {"_value" : "207234"} , {"_value" : "207235"} , {"_value" : "207236"} , {"_value" : "207238"} , {"_value" : "207239"} , {"_value" : "207240"} , {"_value" : "207244"} , {"_value" : "207245"} , {"_value" : "207246"} , {"_value" : "207247"} , {"_value" : "207248"} , {"_value" : "207249"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-09-05T14:17:23.2305019Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-08-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Bangladesh"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps he is taking to promote LGBT rights in Bangladesh; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3929", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Simon Kirby"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Brighton, Kemptown"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Simon Kirby"} ], "uin" : "207237"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 2, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
