Human Rights In East Timor

EDM number 153 in 1996-97, proposed by Audrey Wise on 06/11/1996.

That this House calls on the Government to seek the unconditional release of East Timorese people detained by the Indonesian government for their political views, and the immediate cessation of arbitary arrest, torture and other violations of human rights by security forces in East Timor; supports human rights monitoring by the United Nations but believes this can be effective only if conducted from an office located in East Timor itself rather than in the Indonesian capital Jakarta; and regards the establishment of such systematic monitoring as urgent.

This motion has been signed by a total of 75 MPs.
