Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Anna McMorrin and Harriett Baldwin

Tuesday 4th December 2018 Commons Chamber

[Anna McMorrin (Cardiff North) (Lab)]

My constituent Mr Nkemgo is from Cameroon. Many close members of his family have been shot and killed, and their villages have been burnt. What urgent action has the Secretary of State taken or will he take, and what does he say to my constituent?

[Harriett Baldwin]

I can say to the hon. Lady’s constituent that she is absolutely right to raise this very serious situation, that the UK Government are doing everything that they can to encourage the Government in Cameroon to engage in a dialogue with what has become an increasingly armed separatist movement. We are working with the United Nations on what further assistance can be given to the populations who are being displaced in this crisis.
