Palestinian Prisoners In Israeli Jails

EDM number 243 in 2004-05, proposed by Richard Burden on 30/11/2004.

That this House is alarmed that since 1967 more than 600,000 Palestinians, including women and children, are believed to have been detained by Israeli military and security forces, with an estimated 7,000 Palestinians currently being held in custody; notes that numerous human rights organisations continue to report inhuman and degrading treatment of detainees as well as the use of torture; is concerned about an apparent culture of impunity on the part of the Israeli authorities in respect of these matters; calls upon the UK Government to take every measure possible to ensure that Israel complies with its international legal obligations, particularly the Fourth Geneva Convention; and further calls upon the UK Government to request that the Israel authorities address, as a matter of urgency, the serious legal concerns raised by the Inter-Parliamentary Union in the cases of the imprisoned Palestinian Parliamentarians Marwan Barghouti and Hussam Khader.

This motion has been signed by a total of 104 MPs.
