Mr. David Turner:

Deputy Barrett asked whether the persecution has worsened in recent years. Yes, and that is what initially drove the publication of our report. As I mentioned initially, we are concerned about many countries around the world where Christians face persecution. In the second half of last year I became aware of the piles of reports from India. That is why we commissioned and put together our report. I confirm that the persecution has worsened over the past two to three years.
