MOTION NO.1

MOTION: Councillor S. Holland

MAYORS BUSINESS

Following a recent human rights delegation to Brussels, led by Lynn Boylan MEP, I ask that this council write to the dept of foreign affairs asking them to publicly demand the release of Firhouse teenager Ibrahim Halawa. This strong approach has resulted in the release of American Mohammed Soltan, Canadian Mohammed Fahmy and Australian Peter Greste.

REPORT:

If the Motion is passed a letter will issue to the appropriate Minister, and a reply when received will issue to the Members
