The Lord Bishop of Leeds – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by The Lord Bishop of Leeds on 2016-04-18.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Anelay of St Johns on 5 April (HL7332), what assessment they have made of the documentation work undertaken by the Kurdistan Regional Government’s committee on genocide and committee on mass graves.

Baroness Anelay of St Johns

We have not carried out an assessment of any documentation work undertaken by the Kurdistan Regional Government committees on genocide and mass graves. However, we are working with our partners in the international community to find further ways to support the gathering of evidence which could be used by courts to hold Daesh to account.
