answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2014 answer text <p>No such discussions have taken place. The UK remains deeply concerned about demolitions of Palestinian property, which cause unnecessary suffering to ordinary Palestinians, are harmful to the peace process and, in all but the most limited circumstances, are contrary to international humanitarian law. The UK and the EU are currently engaging with the Israeli authorities in order to accelerate the approval of UK-funded masterplans for Palestinian communities in Area C of the West Bank. These plans provide the basis for sustainable development in Area C and reduce the risk of demolition.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency New Forest West answering member printed Mr Desmond Swayne question first answered 24/11/2014 17:49:21 answering member 55 label Biography information for Sir Desmond Swayne
