RESUMPTION OF ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN DIRECT NEGOTIATIONS

Early day motion 498, tabled 10 September 2013 by Lord Campbell of Pittenweem (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 52 members.

That this House welcomes July 2013's resumption of direct talks between Israeli and Palestinian negotiators; congratulates US Secretary of State John Kerry for his endeavours; urges both sides to refrain from any acts that undermine the trust required for successful negotiations; further urges both the Israeli and Palestinian leadership to ensure that these negotiations achieve a two state solution, based on the pre-1967 borders with agreed land swaps, and East Jerusalem as the capital for the new state of Palestine; and applauds the work of civil society groups such as the OneVoice Movement, whose vital work highlights the will of the majority of Israelis and Palestinians who seek an end to the prolonged occupation and conflict.

Signatures by party: Labour 29, Liberal Democrat 13, Conservative 4, Social Democratic and Labour Party 3, Alliance 1, Independent 1, Scottish National Party 1.
