answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/10/2016 answer text <p>The UK remains extremely concerned about continued Israeli settlement expansion and the large increase in demolitions in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since the start of 2016, compared to the monthly average in 2015. We continue to raise these issues with the Israeli authorities. Demolitions and the evictions of Palestinians from their homes cause unnecessary suffering, are harmful to the peace process, and in all but the most exceptional of cases are contrary to international humanitarian law.</p><p>The UK supports Palestinians facing demolition or eviction and displacement by funding a legal aid programme to help individuals and communities challenge these decisions in the Israeli legal system.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 14/10/2016 16:58:40 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
