The member for East Ham asked of Foreign Office Minister Hugo Swire "whether he plans to express concern about persecution of religious groups in China with President Xi Jinping during his visit to the UK?".
In his response, Mr Swire said: "We raise the range of our human rights concerns directly with China. We do so during the annual UK-China Human Rights Dialogue. We also highlight them publicly in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's Annual Report on Human Rights and Democracy (www.hrdreport.fco.gov.uk).
"Ministers regularly engage China on human rights. The Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, Phillip Hammond, did so during the UK-China Strategic Dialogue in Beijing in August, as did the Chancellor, George Osborne, during his visit in September.
"Discussions during the State Visit will be broad, covering areas both where we agree and disagree."
The question and response has been released as Chinese president Xi Jinping receives a red carpet welcome to the UK.
On Tuesday night he was given a state banquet at Buckingham Palace.
His visit has seen thousands taken to the streets to offer support however a number of human rights protesters were also heard booing.
