The motion
That this House expresses concern and sorrow regarding the attack on the Coptic Christian churches in Egypt during which 44 people were killed and 126 were wounded; calls on the Government to stand in solidarity with the Egyptian Government and people, and in particular with the Christian churches in that country which wish to be free to worship God in peace and with full security; and urges the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to liaise closely with its Egyptian counterparts to offer any support and help that it is possible to give at this time.
