Time unknown

I move, That this House note with great concern that Ingrid Betancourt, former Green Presidential candidate, has now been held for over six years by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) since her abduction on 23 February 2002, and that her health is now reported to be in a critical state, and call on FARC to show compassion and immediately release Ingrid Betancourt, and declare our solidarity with the other hostages detained in Colombia and support for a humanitarian solution that will allow them to be released as soon as possible.

Motion agreed to.
