Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will make representations to his counterpart in the Pakistani Government on ensuring that child and adult detainees are not held together in prisons in Pakistan.

We remain concerned about the human rights situation in Pakistan, including the human rights situation for children. The British Government regularly raises its concerns about human rights at the highest levels with of the Government of Pakistan. The UK is supportive of the ongoing implementation of the Juvenile Justice System Act, which mandates separate provisions for juvenile and adult offenders.
