Proceeding contribution from Lisa Cameron (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on Palestinian School Curriculum: Radicalisation.


Palestinian School Curriculum: Radicalisation

I thank the hon. Gentleman for bringing this important matter to the House today. I refer hon. Members to my entry in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the Government should be looking very closely at the psychological impact of these materials on children and their upbringing? Should they not ensure that the work done by the Department for International Development, including in my own constituency of East Kilbride, fosters positive mental health and wellbeing throughout the early years, and supports and builds individuals who will be positive contributors to society? Some of the materials that he has described certainly run counter to that aim.
