On 4 September UN Human Rights said nobody in Gaza was safe and reported continued fatal attacks. Resolution 2803 provides no equivalent West Bank force. The UK should offer a contribution suitable for real civilian-protection duties, not limited to liaison, advisory or planning staff.","committee_note":"","state":"open","signature_count":7,"closing_date":"2027-04-08","created_at":"2026-09-09T17:52:31.591Z","updated_at":"2026-10-08T14:16:40.000Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2026-10-08T13:38:50.067Z","closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-09-12T17:38:10.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":"Farquhar Rory Iverson","rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[{"acronym":"MoD","name":"Ministry of Defence","url":"https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ministry-of-defence"}],"topics":[],"signatures_by_country":[{"name":"United Kingdom","code":"GB","signature_count":7}],"signatures_by_constituency":[{"name":"Great Yarmouth","ons_code":"E14001256","mp":"Rupert Lowe MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Cowdenbeath and Kirkcaldy","ons_code":"S14000071","mp":"Melanie Ward MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Dunfermline and Dollar","ons_code":"S14000076","mp":"Graeme Downie MP","signature_count":2},{"name":"Edinburgh West","ons_code":"S14000082","mp":"Christine Jardine MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Glenrothes and Mid Fife","ons_code":"S14000090","mp":"Richard Baker MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"North East Fife","ons_code":"S14000100","mp":"Wendy Chamberlain MP","signature_count":1}],"signatures_by_region":[{"name":"East of England","ons_code":"G","signature_count":1},{"name":"Scotland","ons_code":"M","signature_count":6}],"other_parliamentary_business":[]}}}
