Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon on 2 May (HL7127), why they will not individually list their implementation partners who are supporting Bahraini-led reform or those companies, bodies or individuals that were given contracts to deliver any part of the technical assistance programme for Bahrain in the 2017–18 financial year.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office is not in a position to make precise details available as we have a duty to maintain the confidentiality and confidence of our partners.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office continues to provide numerous updates on its programme work in Bahrain including in its annual Human Rights reports. This information can be found on the gov.uk website.
