Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has had discussions with his counterpart in India on the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

The Foreign Secretary is in regular contact with his Indian and Canadian counterparts about the serious allegations raised in the Canadian Parliament. We have raised this matter with the Government of India and we encourage them to cooperate fully with Canada's investigation. It is important the investigation runs its course, with the perpetrators brought to justice.
