Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what discussions his Department has had with the Czech government on the shooting of eight people in a restaurant in Uherský Brod on 24 February 2015.

The British Embassy in Prague was in contact with the Czech police throughout this incident and monitored the situation closely. No British citizens were involved in the incident. Our thoughts and condolences are with the families and friends of those who lost their lives in this tragedy.
