We have consistently called on Israel to improve movement and access into and out of Gaza, including in recent visits by the Secretary of State for International Development, my right hon. Friend the Member for Sutton Coldfield (Mr Mitchell), and the Minister for the Middle East, my hon. Friend the Member for North East Bedfordshire (Alistair Burt). While steps taken by Israel in 2010 to ease restrictions were welcome, we are clear more needs to be done. We believe that easing restrictions will enhance Israel's security and are working with Israel and EU partners to achieve real change on the ground. |
