To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many diplomats from his Department are based in (a) Sudan, (b) Somalia and (c) Ethiopia. (276252)

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office is currently changing its Human Resources Management Information system. We are therefore unable to obtain the information to answer this question within the required time scale. We should be able to access the system again within two weeks and I will write to the right hon. and learned Member then.
