The motion

That this House notes that Israel is in violation of Article 49 of the fourth Geneva Convention which forbids the transfer of civilian populations to occupied territory; further notes that Israel has established around 250 settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem; concurs with the conclusions of the United Nations Human Rights Council that Israel must immediately initiate a process of withdrawal of all settlers from illegally-occupied territories; and calls on the Government to do all in its powers to urge the Israeli government to withdraw all settlers.
