Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what reports she has received of the (a) number and (b) change in number of Palestinian children held in solitary confinement in Israeli military detention in the most recent period for which information is available; and if she will she seek assurances from the Israeli authorities that they will end the practice.

We do not collect this information. The British Embassy in Tel Aviv has a regular dialogue with Israel on legal issues relating to the occupation, including the treatment of Palestinian children.
