Dec Gaza Crisis Appeal
EDM number 585 in 2008-09, proposed by Richard Burden on 26/01/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Broadcasting and Middle East.
That this House is astonished by the refusal of the BBC and Sky to broadcast the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Gaza Crisis Appeal; considers that the explanations given for this decision by BBC spokespersons are both unconvincing and incoherent; and draws attention to the fact that people wishing to obtain information about the Gaza appeal can contact the DEC by visiting www.dec.org.uk.
This motion has been signed by a total of 209 MPs, 5 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
