answer text <p>We remain extremely concerned about the treatment of Palestinian children detained in Israeli prisons. We funded and facilitated the independent report on Children in Military Custody by leading British lawyers. Ministers and our Ambassador to Israel have strongly urged Israel to implement the recommendations it made. I again raised our concerns over the issue of children in detention with the Israeli authorities during my recent visit between 22-23 August.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are following the progress of establishment of the International Fund for Israeli-Palestinian Peace closely. DFID’s new 3-year people-to-people programme has similar aims and will bring together individuals from both sides of the conflict to build support for a just and peaceful political solution. As a joint minister I can confirm that DFID continues to work closely with the FCO on this.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We continue to believe the two-state solution is the only viable solution to the Arab Israeli conflict, and that there is now some need for greater urgency in attempting to resolve such a long standing issue. We are concerned that settlement construction, demolition of Palestinian property by the Israeli authorities, incitement and terrorist attacks are undermining prospects for peace. Ultimately we believe that peace will only come through negotiations between the parties, but international action could play a role in supporting progress. We are in close consultation with international partners, including the US, about what kind of renewed process might have a better chance of success, including one with a greater role for regional partners.</p> more like this

answer text <p>It has long been the Government's view that Israel's presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territories is governed by the provisions of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949, to which Israel is a state party. We repeatedly call on Israel to abide by its obligations under international law and have a regular dialogue with Israel on legal issues relating to the occupation.</p> more like this
