Gaza: Development Aid
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of UK-funded aid programmes in Gaza over the last three years.
Answered by Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office
The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office has robust safeguards in place to manage the risk of aid diversion and ensure compliance with sanctions and counter-terrorism legislation. All delivery partners undergo detailed due diligence assessments to evaluate their capability and capacity to deliver UK-funded programmes effectively. We remain committed to working with partners to end the conflict, address the dire humanitarian conditions in Gaza, remove the threat from Hamas, and deliver long-term peace for Israelis and Palestinians.
