<p>We have called on the Lebanese Government to ensure that any operation or actions
that impact on the homes of refugees are done in full accordance with Lebanese laws
and international principals, after thorough consultation with those affected, relevant
Non Governmental Organisations, and the UN, and only once appropriate alternative
accommodation has been put in place for those affected. Following lobbying from the
international donor community, including this Government, and after negotiations with
the United Nations Refugee Agency, UNHCR, and refugee communities, the Government
of Lebanon has agreed to postpone the demolition operation in Arsal to 1 July, to
allow refugees more time to comply with the order, or find alternative accommodation.</p>
