Business of the House

In 1975, five journalists died in Balibo in East Timor. In 2007, an Australian coroner's court found that they had been deliberately killed by Indonesian troops and that this constituted a war crime. Five years on, with two British citizens having been killed in a war crime, is it not time that we had a statement from the Foreign Secretary on what our Government are going to do about it?
