The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what engagement she has had with officials in (i) the USA, (ii) Mexico and (iii) Canada to discuss the safety of British citizens attending the FIFA World Cup 2026.

Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer

The UK Government, including officials, embassy staff, and policing partners, are in regular contact with their Canadian, Mexican and US counterparts on a range of issues, including security and public safety planning for the World Cup, and the arrangements for British nationals travelling to watch the tournament. We keep our travel advice under regular review to ensure it reflects the latest assessment of risk to British nationals.
