Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to impose further targeted sanctions and Magnitsky-style penalties on all those who have abused human rights in Darfur.

The UK Government does not speculate on future designations as to do so could reduce their impact.

Our immediate priority is to ensure a cessation of violence across Sudan, and secure humanitarian access. All parties to the conflict must uphold their responsibility to protect civilians and ensure humanitarian assistance can be delivered quicky and safely.

We continue to call on both sides to respect International Law and immediately end the violence for the sake of the people of Sudan and the region.
