The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, with reference to her Department’s press release entitled New UK Aid for displaced people in Lebanon as Minister visits Beirut, published on 16 April 2026, what assessment she has made of the sustainability of UK support in helping displaced communities transition towards longer-term stability.

Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer

I refer the Hon Member to the press release he mentions in his questions, which sets out details of the support being provided. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and our partners have robust processes in place to ensure we maximise the impact of our humanitarian funding and mitigate any risks.
