The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the total cost to the public purse is for the evacuation of children from Gaza as of 2 September 2025.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

I refer the Hon. Member to my Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care’s written statement to the House on 1 September 2025, which is available at the following link:

No children have been evacuated as of 2 September 2025. The Government has therefore not incurred any costs outside of the costs associated with the teams in various Government departments overseeing the evacuation arrangements.
