Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Douglas McAllister and Yvette Cooper

Tuesday 16th June 2026 Commons Chamber

[Douglas McAllister (West Dunbartonshire) (Lab)]

I thank the Foreign Secretary for raising the case of my constituent Jagtar Singh Johal during her recent visit to India. Will she update the House on whether her discussions were positive? Are we any closer to securing Jagtar’s release and return home to West Dunbartonshire?

[Yvette Cooper]

My hon. Friend is right. I raised this while I was in India, and I know how much he has been championing his constituent’s case. There is concern about the length of time without a resolution, and we will continue to raise it.
