EDM number 1983 in 2010-12, proposed by James Arbuthnot on 23/06/2011.
Categorised under the topics of Middle East and Military operations.

That this House notes that 25 June 2011 is the fifth anniversary of the kidnap of Israeli serviceman Gilad Shalit by Hamas and other Palestinian militant groups in a cross-border terrorist attack inside Israel; is concerned that Gilad Shalit is being held incommunicado in the Gaza Strip and is neither permitted to send nor receive messages from his family; further notes that the International Committee of the Red Cross continues to be denied access to the kidnapped soldier; further notes that the soldier's continued detention is an obstacle to peace between Israelis and Palestinians; further notes that Gilad Shalit's detention is a serious violation of international humanitarian laws governing the treatment of prisoners of war, as enshrined by the Third Geneva Convention; condemns the kidnapping of Corporal Gilad Shalit; and calls on the Government to redouble its efforts to secure his immediate release.

This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs.
