Internally Displaced People In Sri Lanka

EDM number 2215 in 2005-06, proposed by Brian Binley on 22/05/2006.

That this House expresses its deep concern at the plight of 135,000 displaced citizens, mostly Muslims, who have been living in the most abject poverty in 35 camps in the Putalam area of Sri Lanka for 16 years as a result of internal conflict not of their own making; and calls upon the Government to do all it can to raise their profile and motivate support and help to ensure that these forgotten people whose plight has been seemingly overlooked by the world can begin to look forward with more hope and confidence.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
