Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether arrangements have been made for delegates to the global summit to promote freedom of religion or belief to hear directly from minority groups experiencing violence and oppression in countries across the globe.

The UK-hosted International Ministerial Conference on Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) in July 2022 will drive forward international efforts on this agenda and demonstrate the UK's leading role in supporting freedom and openness. This conference will allow us to use our global influence to promote and protect freedom of religion or belief for all internationally. Preparations for the conference are ongoing, including planning for participants to hear directly from those suffering restrictions to freedom of religion or belief.
