Enlargement Of The Un Security Council

EDM number 1523 in 2006-07, proposed by Roger Godsiff on 21/05/2007.

That this House notes the recent report of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee and its support for India to have a seat on the Security Council as part of a wider enlargement; agrees that India, as the second largest country in the world, with long democratic traditions, has an excellent claim for a seat on the enlarged Security Council; and believes that any British Government, of whatever political complexion, should not support such a claim until India has resolved the long-standing Kashmir dispute in accordance with the wishes of the people of Kashmir and in fulfilment of the outstanding UN Resolution on the issue of Kashmir.

This motion has been signed by a total of 12 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
