To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will make it his policy to end UK assistance to Bahraini justice and security institutions and if he will maintain that policy until the implementation of human rights reforms in Bahrain; and if he will make a statement.

Bahrain remains a Foreign and Commonwealth Office human rights priority country and there is further work to be done. The UK is committed to supporting Bahrain-led reform and are confident of its positive impact across a variety of areas including building effective and accountable institutions, strengthening the rule of law, and police and justice reform. We continue to monitor events closely, regularly raising human rights concerns with the Government of Bahrain at senior levels, both in private and public.
