Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussion they have had with the government of India about the housing and working conditions for families in plantations run by Amalgamated Plantations Private Limited in Assam.

We have not had any discussions with the government of India on this topic. We expect all companies operating in India to follow India's Labour Law.

The UK is a strong supporter of the universally agreed United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and is committed to promoting its widespread implementation across the world.
