Motion Text

That this House recognises the attacks on the human rights of Christians and others in Sri Lanka; further recognises the potential that there is in Sri Lanka for tourism which is not being fully realised due to the breaches on human rights and the war; and calls on the Government to ascertain what help can be given to this former British colony and to apply diplomatic pressure to ensure that human rights are recognised.
