COLOMBO, Oct. 5 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations Special Rapporteur on minority issues, Rita Izsak-Ndiaye, will carry out an official visit to Sri Lanka from Oct. 10 to 20 to assess the current situation of national or ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities in the country, the UN office in Colombo said on Wednesday.


In a statement, the UN said that during her 10-day visit, the human rights expert will visit Colombo as well as other locations in the Northern, North Central, Eastern and Central Provinces to meet with minority communities to hear directly from them about their issues and concerns.


The Special Rapporteur will also meet with a wide range of other stakeholders, including State authorities, the National Human Rights Commission and civil society actors.


Rita will visit Sri Lanka at the invitation of the Sri Lankan government.


She said that while she recognised the important advances made since the new administration was sworn in last year, the Sri Lankan government still faces immense challenges in terms of fostering unity, non-discrimination, peace and understanding among groups in the country.


She is expected to present her full report on her visit to the UN Human Rights Council in March 2017. Enditem


The British government is facing criticism from business groups over statements suggesting the U.K. is heading for a hard divorce from the European Union — and pressure from lawmakers who want Parliament to have a vote on the proposed exit terms.


The government's repeated emphasis on controlling immigration sent out "signs that the door is being closed Nike Air Max 90 Mens Australia , to an extent, on the open economy, that has helped fuel investment Nike Air Max 97 Mens Australia ," the head of employers' group the Confederation of British Industry, Carolyn Fairbairn, said in comments published Monday.


Prime Minister Theresa May said last week that Britain would seek to retain a close relationship with the 28-nation bloc Nike Air Max Mens Australia , with continued free trade in goods and services. But she said the U.K. wouldn't cede control over immigration, a conflict with the EU's principle of free movement among member states.


In another statement that sent ripples of alarm through Britain's business world, Home Secretary Amber Rudd said that companies could be forced to disclose what percentage of their workforce was from other countries.


Fairbairn told the Times of London newspaper that business leaders regard the idea "as an indication that it is somehow a shameful thing to be attracting the best talent from around the world Nike Air Max 90 Black Australia , rather than a source of pride."


Downing St. spokesman Greg Swift said Monday that the idea was only a suggestion and might not become policy. He said "it's one area that's being looked at as part of a wider consultation process" on British immigration policy.


Businesses have also been concerned by uncertainty over whether up to 3 million EU citizens who currently live in the U.K. will get to stay.


May said Monday during a visit to Copenhagen that "I expect to be able to guarantee the legal rights of EU nationals already in the U.K.," as long as British nationals elsewhere in the EU receive the same treatment.


May has said she will invoke Article 50 of the EU constitution — triggering two years of official exit talks — by March 31.


Opposition lawmakers —and some from May's Conservative Party — say Parliament should be given a say in approving Britain's negotiating terms with the EU before talks begin. They worry the government has decided to seek a "hard Brexit" that means leaving the single market.


Conservative lawmaker Andrew Tyrie said "it will greatly strengthen the prime minister's hand in negotiations" if the plans have the backing of Parliament.


Labour Party Brexit spokesman Keir Starmer accused the government of "sidelining Parliament."


The government minister in charge of exiting the EU, David Davis Nike Air Max 95 Black Australia , told lawmakers they wouldn't get a vote on the negotiating terms — but might get one on "any new treaty on a new relationship with the EU" that emerged at the end of the talks.


"The simple truth is that the attempt to block Article 50 is an attempt to block the will of the British people," he said.


"There will be plenty of opportunity to debate in the next two and a half years."
