UN World Refugee Day And Internally Displaced Persons

EDM number 266 in 2013-14, proposed by Penny Mordaunt on 18/06/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Asylum and United Nations.

That this House notes that 20 June 2013 has been designated by the United Nations (UN) as World Refugee Day; further notes that according to official UN figures there are consistently over 10 million more internally displaced persons than refugees; and therefore calls on the UN to rename 20 June 2013 as International Day of Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons.

This motion has been signed by a total of 19 MPs.
