Holocaust Educational Trust Auschwitz Trips (EDM1032)

Holocaust Educational Trust Auschwitz Trips

EDM number 1032 in 2007-08, proposed by Lembit Opik on 25/02/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Ethnic groups, Religion and faith communities and Schools.

That this House welcomes the Government's decision to subsidise the Holocaust Educational Trust's (HET) programme of trips to Auschwitz for school children; believes these visits are a vital part of the education programme to ensure the lessons of the Holocaust are not forgotten; further believes these visits help prevent such genocide from happening again; notes that many people were offended by the insensitive, thoughtless and offensive claim in a Conservative document that trips to Auschwitz are a gimmick; and asks the right hon. Member for Witney to confirm that, if elected to Government, a Conservative administration would continue to provide the financial subsidy at the same level for the HET's trips to Auschwitz programme.

This motion has been signed by a total of 56 MPs.
