The motion
That this House notes the meeting held in the House of Commons on 15 May 2012 at which the serious problems facing women from religious minorities in Pakistan were highlighted; expresses concern and regret that women from these minority communities frequently experience sexual harassment or are raped and are regularly denied even basic rights like access to clean water; and calls on the Government to make robust representations to the Pakistan High Commission to ensure that everything possible is done by the Pakistan government to ensure that women from religious minorities are protected.
