Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 October 2025

Debate

China Spying Case

Contribution

Let me just finish my point. I will come back to the right hon. and learned Gentleman if time allows. The meeting was specifically set up to provide the FCDO with an opportunity to discuss—at an appropriately senior official level; no Ministers attended the meeting—what the approach would be to handling engagement with China across a range of scenarios related to this case, as well as in relation to wider issues that would come up. Those who attended the meeting were operating on the basis that the trial would go ahead at the start of October.
