Israel and Palestine: Physicians for Human Rights

Volume 701: debated on Tuesday 6 May 2008

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have received representations directly from Physicians for Human Rights–Israel; if so, whether they have responded; and whether the quartet and its representative have acted on its representations. [HL3248]

We greatly appreciate the work of humanitarian organisations working in the Gaza Strip. We have received a written report from Physicians for Human Rights-Israel on the situation in Gaza. I understand that Physicians for Human Rights-Israel gave a presentation to various officials in the Department for International Development on 28 April. Unfortunately I am not in a position to comment on correspondence between the quartet, its representative, and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel.
