answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/04/2017 answer text <p>It has long been our position that Israeli settlement activity is illegal and undermines the viability of two states for two peoples, but it is far from the only obstacle to peace. UN Security Council Resolution 2334 addresses settlements while also calling for an end to incitement and terrorism. Both during negotiations for exiting the EU, and following our departure, we will continue to strongly support the implementation of Resolution 2334. The Secretary-General reports to the Council every three months on the implementation of its provisions.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 27/04/2017 08:23:44 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/04/2017 answer text <p>The British Government is gravely concerned about continued demolition of Palestinian property by the Israeli authorities including proposals to demolish the Bedouin village of Khan al Ahmar. An official from our Embassy to Tel Aviv discused this issue with the Israeli authorities on 4 April. The Foreign Secretary expressed our concern about the proposals to demolish Khan al-Ahmar when he met Prime Minister Netanyahu in Israel on 8 March. I also raised it with the Israeli Ambassador to London on 1 March. On 28 February our Deputy Consul-General to Jerusalem visited Khan al Ahmar along with EU Heads of Mission, and our Ambassador to Tel Aviv raised our concerns over the proposed demolition with the Israeli authorities.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 27/04/2017 08:21:05 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
