Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will make representations to the Chinese Government on the recent expulsion of missionaries from the Chinese border region with North Korea.
We are aware of reports of the expulsion of 32 South Korean missionaries from the Yanji region of China by the Chinese authorities.
We have no plans to raise these specific cases with the Chinese Government, as this is a matter for the South Korean Government.
