There has been no Ministerial level contact between the UK Government and the Mauritian Government since 20 January.

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the financial and strategic implications of transferring sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.

Answered by Lord Wood of Anfield - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

The Government has set out its assessment on numerous occasions, including in the Explanatory Memorandum that accompanied the Diego Garcia Treaty. Maintaining long-term operational control of the Diego Garcia base is the entire basis for the UK-Mauritius Treaty.

We call on the UK Government to raise the issue of enforced disappearances in Balochistan with the Government of Pakistan, to press for the release of detained activists, and to call for an independent investigation into human rights abuses in the region.
