To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the budget for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office global review into the persecution of Christians; what is the timeframe for agreeing the terms of reference for that review; and whether it will be possible for external experts and organisations to comment on these terms before they are finalised.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office attaches great importance to this independent global review into the persecution of Christians, which was launched on 30 January. The Terms of Reference for the review are currently being agreed with the independent reviewer. They will be published once finalised. We will ensure that the Bishop of Truro is well supported and has the resources needed to conduct the review.
