The proceedings are to be published, and will contribute towards the campaign for official recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the Government.
Then, a meeting of the All-Party Burma Group, and after that to Mr Speaker's for the announcement of the Mr Speaker Abbott Award (of which I'm one of the judges). This year's award went to Akbar Ganji from Iran, with a special posthumous award to Anna Politkovskaya.
