Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions he has had with his Israeli counterpart on guaranteeing safe access to school for pupils and teachers in Hebron and throughout Palestine.

We are concerned about reports of restrictions on movement and displacement in Hebron and the impact these have on Palestinian education facilities. Access to educational facilities must be protected. We continue to raise our concerns with the Government of Israel and urge them to fully respect the fundamental rights and freedoms of educational institutions.
