uin	HL3624
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2015 answer text <p>While we have not made any representations on this issue to the Israeli authorities, the UK’s position on Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and all construction within, is clear. They are illegal under international law, present an obstacle to peace and take us further away from a two state solution.</p><p>On the issue of Palestinian solar installations, we continue to urge the Government of Israel to develop improved mechanisms for zoning, planning and permitting in Area C for the benefit of the Palestinian population, including by facilitating local Palestinian participation in such processes.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 30/11/2015 15:54:26 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
