Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether he has raised with his Chinese counterpart reports of the alleged use of forced confessions on China Central Television.
This question was answered on 5th February 2019
The UK Government follows recent media reports of forced confessions on Chinese state media. We shall continue to urge the Chinese government to ensure fundamental civil and political rights are protected, in line with China’s constitution and its international commitments. All broadcasts in the UK are regulated by Ofcom and it is their decision whether any particular broadcasters are granted licences.
