My Department first became aware of the arrest of the person mentioned by the Deputy by the Cambodian authorities, in June 2009. As we have no resident Embassy in Cambodia, our Embassy in Vietnam, which is also accredited to Cambodia, sought assistance from the British Embassy, to visit the person concerned and to provide all possible consular assistance on our behalf. My Department has since been involved in efforts to assist the person concerned and I will communicate directly with the Deputy on the matter.
