\n

57.\t<\/span>The CHAIRMAN<\/u> referred to Israel’s temporary suspension order of May 2002, enacted as the Nationality and Entry into Israel Law (Temporary Order) on 31 July 2003, which suspended for a renewable one-year period the possibility of family reunification, subject to limited and subjective exceptions, especially in the cases of marriages between an Israeli citizen and a person residing in the West Bank and Gaza. The Human Rights Committee had expressed its concern in its concluding observations adopted at its 2128th to 2130th meetings held on 4 and 5 August 2003.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

58.\t<\/span>Israel was due to submit its periodic report for consideration at the Committee’s session in March 2004 but, since the matter concerned a blatantly discriminatory law, the Committee might consider addressing it as a matter of urgency. He had invited a representative of Israel to appear before the Committee later in the week but the representative had made it clear that he would appear only if formally invited in a letter from the Committee. He asked the Committee whether it agreed that such a meeting should be held and whether a letter of invitation should be sent. He reminded the Committee that Mr. Aboul-Nasr was already preparing a relevant document with a view to considering an urgent action procedure.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

59.\t<\/span>Mr. LINDGREN ALVES<\/u> and Mr. de GOUTTES<\/u> endorsed the proposal.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

60.\t<\/span>Mr. KJAERUM<\/u> also supported the proposal, saying that he trusted the Committee would be provided with all the facts of the case.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

61.\t<\/span>Mr. THORNBERRY<\/u> requested that the text of the legislation concerned be made available to the Committee.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

62.\t<\/span>The CHAIRMAN<\/u> said that he would accordingly address a letter on behalf of the Committee to the representative of Israel, inviting him to attend a meeting of the Committee on Thursday, 14 August 2003.<\/p><\/div>\n
