Afghanistan: Refugees
Asked by: Baroness Kennedy of Shaws (Labour - Life peer) Monday 14th April 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what representations they are making to the government of Pakistan regarding reports that from 31 March it intends to return to Afghanistan all undocumented refugees, including women judges whose US visas have been revoked. Answered by Lord Collins of Highbury - Lord in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) We are aware that the Government of Pakistan has announced its intention to recommence deportations in April 2025. We are closely monitoring the Government of Pakistan's policy and are working with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to ensure Pakistan adheres to its international human rights obligations. We continue to raise concerns with the Government of Pakistan regarding the humanitarian implications of the deportation of Afghan refugees. The visa process and issuance of documentation to Afghan refugees is a matter for Pakistani authorities, who ultimately reserve the right to decide the eligibility criteria for applicants. |

27 Mar 2025
Crime and Policing Bill Human Rights (Joint Committee) (Select) Not accepting submissions The Joint Committee on Human Rights is conducting legislative scrutiny of the Crime and Policing Bill to assess its compatibility with international and domestic human rights standards. The Government’s stated purpose for the Bill is to support its mission to halve knife crime and violence against women and girls in a decade, to increase public confidence in policing and the wider criminal justice system, to support neighbourhood policing and give the police the powers they need to tackle anti-social behaviour, crime and terrorism, whilst introducing reforms to ensure that law enforcement agencies perform to high standards and focus on front-line policing. Many of the changes proposed by the Bill would engage the human rights of victims, perpetrators and other members of the public |
