I tabled this question as I firmly believe that the international community is ignoring the plight of the Tamil people in Sri Lanka. Is the Minister aware of their plight? Is he aware that the Sri Lankan Government continues to refuse to co-operate with international investigations into alleged war crimes committed by its military during the war which ended in 2009? Is he aware of the ongoing persecution of the Tamils in Sri Lanka, in particular in the northern and eastern provinces? What can be done?
