Motion Text

That this House is appalled at the continued use of the death penalty in many countries, including Saudi Arabia; is deeply disturbed that public executions are carried out in a country that is a major UK trading partner and regularly receives Ministerial and Royal Family visits; and calls on the Government to make the strongest possible representations to the government of Saudi Arabia expressing its abhorrence at its continued use of the death penalty.
