BAHA'I COMMUNITY IN IRAN

EDM number 1285 in 2006-07, proposed by Andrew Dismore on 17/04/2007.

That this House notes the reports of the targeting of Baha'i children in Iran for harassment, vilification and abuse across multiple locations in Iran; further notes that the persecution of these children is being conducted by their teachers and school administrators, and that abuse of these students extends to primary and high school age children, some of whom have been dismissed from school; and calls on the UK Government to remind the Iranian authorities of their obligations under the Convention of the Rights of the Child, in particular articles 14 and 28.

This motion has been signed by a total of 43 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
