The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps his Department (a) has taken and (b) is taking to help ensure that the Indian Government takes a full part in the post-ceasefire peace negotiations with Pakistan.

Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer

The agreement to cease further military action reached on 10 May was hugely welcome. Risks remain and it is important that steps are taken to build regional stability. The Foreign Secretary visited Islamabad on 16 May and Delhi on 7 June and continues to engage with his counterparts in both countries.
