Israel: Visits Abroad

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government what representations they have made to the government of Israel about their refusal to allow two British MPs to enter that country.

Answer

We are deeply concerned by the latest incident of two British MPs being denied entry to the State of Palestine by Israel. The Minister for the Middle East and officials were in contact with the MPs affected throughout. The Government has been clear with the Israeli authorities that this is no way to treat British parliamentarians.
