Elizabeth Prosser

EDM number 858 in 2008-09, proposed by Mark Williams on 24/02/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Administration of justice and North America.

That this House notes with concern that US authorities have made a request to extradite Mrs Elizabeth Prosser on charges of child abduction and obtaining money by deception; further notes that Mrs Prosser is charged with abducting her own daughter and that as such the case is highly emotive, that there are significant mitigating factors and that the sums of money involved are negligible; acknowledges that because of concerns over Mrs Prosser's health, the Home Office has delayed its decision; further notes that recent medical reports show that her condition would be worsened and that substantial damage to her health would be done by extraditing her; recognises that the Government has rejected attempts to extradite Mrs Prosser previously; believes that given her health problems and the mitigating factors surrounding the offences of which she is accused, extraditing Mrs Prosser would neither be humane nor in the public interest; and urges the Home Office to intervene.

This motion has been signed by a total of 16 MPs.
