<p>While we have not made representations on this specific issue, officials from our
Embassy in Tel Aviv raised the issue of settler violence and the importance of accountability
with the Israeli Ministry of Justice on 29 October. The Government condemns any violence
by settlers against Palestinians. We note the efforts of Israeli authorities to tackle
settler violence, and urge thorough investigation of every instance to bring those
responsible to justice. We have also stressed to the Israeli authorities the importance
of Israeli security forces providing appropriate protection to the Palestinian civilian
population from settler violence and intimidation.</p>
