Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 3 March 2026 to Question 112762, what process she has made since 3 March on steps to help secure the release of Jimmy Lai.

The UK continues to raise Jimmy Lai's case with the Chinese Government at every opportunity, alongside a number of international partners, calling both for his release, and for the protection of his health and wellbeing while he remains in detention. I will keep Hon Members updated on progress resulting from these efforts.
