Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
My Lords, in the interest of time, I will write to the noble Lord on his second question, but progress is being made there. On the agenda, I thank the noble Lord for his kind remarks on PSVI. As we did previously in London, I am hoping that we will be able to convene a side meeting of leading nations during the Heads of Government meeting when it is rescheduled in Kigali.
Lord Campbell of Pittenweem (LD) [V]
My Lords, when black rights matter, should not black and gay rights matter equally throughout the Commonwealth?
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
My Lords, I agree with the noble Lord. All rights matter: black rights, gay rights, religious rights—all rights matter for the Commonwealth; that is what the Commonwealth is all about.
