Written question asked by Lord Hylton (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Howell of Guildford (Conservative) on Monday, 23 April 2012.
Israel and Palestine: West Bank
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the United Kingdom and other European Union member states will consider imposing personal sanctions against any settler leaders in the West Bank suspected of organising attacks on Palestinians and their property.
- Answer
-
The UK is concerned about reports of an increase in violence by extremist settlers during 2011. Along with our European partners, we are considering what further actions can be taken in response to continued Israeli settlement activity and settler violence, including the possibility of excluding from the European Union those settler leaders who are assessed as inciting violence.
