The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many children from Gaza have been accepted into the UK for medical treatment since July 2025.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

I refer the hon. Member to the statement on Gov.uk published on 17 September, which is available the following link:

The safety, privacy and wellbeing of these severely ill and vulnerable patients and their families remains our absolute priority. To protect patient confidentiality, we will not be providing further operational details about their treatment or whereabouts.
