Human Rights In Burma

EDM number 238 in 2009-10, proposed by Alistair Carmichael on 25/11/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Asia and Human rights.

That this House expresses severe concern at the escalating systematic human rights abuses being perpetrated against the people of Burma by the Junta military dictatorship; notes that there is well documented evidence over many years of widespread torture, forced displacement, sexual violence, extra-judicial killings and forced labour with civilians being deliberately targeted; further notes that these actions constitute crimes against humanity and war crimes; and calls on the Government to urge the United Nations to establish a Commission of Inquiry into these crimes in addition to supporting the International Labour Organisation's calls to refer the use of forced labour to the International Court of Justice.

This motion has been signed by a total of 186 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
