Motion Text

That this House recalls that 11 March 2014 is the tenth anniversary of the Madrid train bombings when 192 people were murdered and 1,800 people injured; recognises that this date has been designated in Europe as Victims' Day; also recognises that thousands of innocent victims across the UK, particularly in Northern Ireland, will understand and empathise with the demand across Europe for greater recognition of all those who have suffered at the hands of terrorists; and calls on the Government to take the lead in promoting victims' issues and addressing their concerns.
