To ask Her Majesty's Government what representations they have made, if any, to the government of Israel concerning reports that Israel is holding 482 Palestinians in administrative detention, including 4 minors, without charge or trial.

We continue to call on the Israeli authorities to comply with their obligations under international law and either charge or release detainees. We remain committed to working with Israel to secure improvements to the practices surrounding children in detention and regularly raise this with the Israeli Ministry of Justice. We also fund projects providing legal aid to assist children with legal representation and capacity building to local lawyers.
