Identification Of Political Prisoners In Burma

EDM number 555 in 2012-13, proposed by Charles Kennedy on 15/10/2012.
Categorised under the topics of Asia and International politics and government.

That this House recognises the importance of identifying all the remaining political prisoners in Burma and recommends that a review mechanism should be initiated, with assistance from the United Nations and civil society; and believes that upon identification an individual should either be charged with an internationally recognised offence and tried by proceedings recognisable with international fair trial standards, or released without charge.

This motion has been signed by a total of 38 MPs.
