Motion Text

That this House notes recent reports that 21 foetuses and baby bodies were discarded in the Guangfu River, Jining City, China; further notes that the one child policy in China limits most couples to one child; further notes with concern increasing evidence, including from official sources, that Chinese authorities continue to employ compulsory abortion and sterilisation as an official policy; and calls on the government of China to cease coercive measures, including forced abortion and sterilisation.
