The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions she has had with her Israeli counterparts on the dual-use categorisation of vaccination syringes and bottles of baby formula.

Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer

We continue to urge the Israeli authorities to lift all restrictions that are delaying the flow of humanitarian supplies into Gaza, including food, medical items, and shelter kits, and to enable safe, unrestricted access for the United Nations and other organisations seeking to deliver that humanitarian relief.
