Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs written question – answered at on 11 November 2009.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent representations he has made to Governments of Arab states to secure the release of Gilad Shalit.
We continue to call on Hamas to release Gilad Shalit without further delay or conditions. I met Noam Shalit, Gilad's father, in Tel Aviv in August 2009 to demonstrate our ongoing support. On the same visit, I also stressed the need for his immediate release to those I met within the Palestinian Authority. Since then, in discussions at the UN, we have also made clear to Arab governments and others the need for his immediate release.
