Motion Text

That this House is concerned by the displacement of 1 million Iraqi Christians by an increase in terrorism that has destabilised the country and forced them to pay protection money, convert to Islam or face death; and calls on the Government to take steps to ensure that Christians are protected and not subjected to any further intimidation by Islamic State.
