UN Human Rights Council 41: Extreme Poverty

Thank you, Mr President,

I am taking the floor with regard to the report presented by the Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, which covers his visit to the United Kingdom in November 2018. The UK has submitted a detailed response to the Special Rapporteur’s recommendations, under document number A/HRC/41/39/Add.3.

We refer all members of the Council and all observer delegations to that document so that they can consider our comments, alongside the Special Rapporteur’s report.

Thank you.
