Motion Text
That this House notes the Free Tibet movement march on the Chinese border; notes that the march aims to reach the border when the Beijing Olympics close in order to highlight the injustice of treatment of Tibet by the Chinese authorities; and calls on the Chinese government to recognise the rights of Tibetans and in the spirit of the Olympic Games adopt a tolerant and respectful stance towards the beliefs and rights of Tibetans.
