Craig Foreman and Lindsay Foreman
Wednesday 11th March 2026

Asked by: Caroline Dinenage (Conservative - Gosport)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps her Department plans to take to help secure the release of Craig and Lindsey Forman from arbitrary detention in Iran.

Answered by Hamish Falconer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

I refer the Hon Member to the statement issued by the Foreign Secretary on 19 February following the sentencing of Lindsay and Craig Foreman. The sentence is completely appalling and totally unjustifiable. We will pursue this case relentlessly with the Iranian government until we see Craig and Lindsay Foreman safely returned to the UK and reunited with their family. In the meantime, their welfare is our priority and we will continue to provide consular assistance to them and their families.

MP: Caroline Dinenage
Speech in Commons Chamber - Mon 09 Mar 2026
