MAPUCHE PEOPLE OF CHILE

That this House notes the continuing repression of the Mapuche indigenous people of Chile, the recent hunger strike by Mapuche political prisoners since 12 July 2010 and the demands of the Mapuche people for the demilitarisation of Mapuche lands, an end of the use of the anti-terrorist legislation introduced against the Mapuche people during the Pinochet era and self-determination; and calls on the Government to make strong representations to the Chilean President on the issue, in particular during his forthcoming visit to the UK.
