answer text <p>The Government continues to have concerns about Israel's military court system for Palestinians in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We have advocated to the Israeli authorities the importance of fulfilling the internationally recognised standards for a fair trial. We are particularly concerned about continued reports of ill-treatment of Palestinian minors in Israeli military detention, which we regularly lobby the Israeli authorities on.</p><p>​</p> more like this

answer text <p>We have not raised this specific issue with the Israeli authorities. While we recognise Israel's legitimate need to deploy security measures, we encourage them to deploy these in a way which minimises tension and to use appropriate force. In instances where there have been accusations of excessive use of force, we have advocated swift, transparent investigations.</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, including settlements and the treatment of Palestinian children in military custody.</p> more like this

answer text <p>While we have not made any representations on this specific matter, we continue to stress to Israel the importance we attach to protection of civilians in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We remain deeply concerned about restrictions on freedom of movement within the West Bank. Through our Embassy in Tel Aviv we have lobbied the Israeli authorities on the issue and we continue to work closely with EU partners to call on Israel to ease restrictions on access.</p> more like this
