We have been clear that any such movement should be safe, voluntary, well-informed and dignified. We have strongly supported the UN's calls for Russia and the Syrian regime to allow in humanitarian assistance to Rukban, to guarantee protection of rights for those wishing to return and to allow UN access throughout the return process.</p> answering member constituency South West Wiltshire answering member printed Dr Andrew Murrison question first answered 17/05/2019 11:45:33 answering member 1466 label Biography information for Dr Andrew Murrison
