Turkey And Discrimination Against The Kurdish People

EDM number 1066 in 1994-95, proposed by Martin Redmond on 01/05/1995.

That this House welcomes the debate on Turkey by the Council of Europe and the vote supported by the Labour delegation that Turkish armed forces should be withdrawn immediately from the territory of foreign states; and recommends that committees of the Turkish Parliament should be given a deadline for bringing forward amendments to the Constitution and the penal code with a view to bringing Turkey into compliance with its obligations under the Statute and conventions of the Council of Europe and that the Turkish authorities should facilitate the visit of Assembly representatives, with a guarantee of free movement throughout the country, notably in those regions of the south east with minority conflicts and that the Committee of Ministers should suspend Turkey's rights of representation to the Council of Europe until these demands are responded to.

This motion has been signed by a total of 46 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
