This question was answered on 31st July 2018

​Our Consul General in Jerusalem raised our concerns over the actions of the Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces and police during the demonstration held in Ramallah on 13 June with senior officials from the PA multiple times in June and July. The PA has accepted that there were mistakes in the policing and has undertaken to learn from these mistakes.
