Furtherance Of Dialogue Between The Chinese Government And Envoys Of The Dalai Lama

EDM number 1513 in 2006-07, proposed by Harry Cohen on 18/05/2007.

That this House supports the European Parliament's Resolution on the dialogue between the Chinese government and envoys of the Dalai Lama tabled on 14th February; draws attention to the Dalai Lama's consistent statements that he is not seeking independence, but a genuine devolved autonomy, for Tibet; calls on the Government to follow the directives of the Resolution and actively to support the strengthening of the dialogue and assess what further role the European Union can play to facilitate a negotiated solution for Tibet, including through the appointment of an EU special representative for Tibet; and urges the government of the People's Republic of China and the Dalai Lama to resume and continue the dialogue without preconditions and in a forward-looking manner that allows a pragmatic solution that respects the territorial integrity of China and fulfils the aspirations of the Tibetan people for a unified and genuinely devolved autonomous Tibet.

This motion has been signed by a total of 66 MPs.
