§ Lord Hyltonasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they are evaluating the results of large-scale testing of public opinion in Israel and Palestine by One Voice; and what conclusions they draw from it. [HL3348]
§ Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean:We are aware of the work of One Voice and commend the initiative, which gives Israelis and Palestinians a chance to look beyond the conflict to areas of common ground. We hope the initiative will engender further debate and create an environment of hope for the future.
Like the Geneva Accord and People's Voice initiatives, this shows yet again the longing for peace and a just resolution of the conflict which exists amongst Israelis and Palestinians. We keep this in mind as we continue our efforts to restart a sustainable peace process.
