Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether his Department is taking steps to ensure sanctions are taken against companies which have been sanctioned by other nations for links with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

We keep all evidence and potential designations under close review. We will consider targets, guided by the objectives of the relevant sanctions regime and the evidence. It would not be appropriate to speculate about potential future sanctions designations as to do so could reduce their impact. We coordinate sanctions activity with our allies to maximise collective impact where possible, but this does not mean we will always take identical and simultaneous action - our respective sanctions regimes sometimes differ, as do the strategic objectives they serve.

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what discussions she has had with (a) local authority officers and (b) local authority elected representatives on the cancellation of the local elections in Essex, and if she will publish such conversations.

Answered by Jim McMahon - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

The Secretary of State has not had discussions with these local authorities on the cancellation of the local elections. Discussions on the applications to the Devolution Priority Programme have been had with all upper tier and unitary councils in the preparation of the programme, and those discussions covered all matters related to the timetable and process by both officials and ministers, as you would expect.
