Zimbabwean Refugees (EDM660)

Zimbabwean Refugees

EDM number 660 in 2007-08, proposed by Willie Rennie on 09/01/2008.

That this House is concerned by the plight of Zimbabwean refugees who are reduced to begging on the street by an asylum system that does not recognise the dangers of returning them to Zimbabwe; notes the Tenth Report of the Joint Committee on Human Rights and deplores the enforced destitution reported within it as occurring to those failed asylum seekers who rightly fear for their safety upon return to their country of origin; and urges the Government to take the applications of Zimbabwean refugees more seriously.

This motion has been signed by a total of 53 MPs.
