Inter Mediate
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, with reference to the answer of 10 April 2026 to Question 119945 on Syria: Inter Mediate, whether Inter Mediate (a) currently works for any foreign governments that receive funding from the UK Government, (b) currently works in a joint manner between the UK Government and the foreign government and (c) is in any register of competing interests held by the UK Government.
Answered by Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office
For over ten years, Inter Mediate and the UK Government have successfully partnered to advance peace efforts around the globe. The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) supports a range of civil society and non-governmental organisations through its mediation and conflict resolution programme. Given the sensitive and discreet nature of these efforts, we do not disclose details of the projects supported. This ensures that neither the safety of partners, nor the integrity of ongoing peace efforts are compromised. This is in line with the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the FCDO's approach to aid transparency, whereby information is excluded from publication where sharing could pose risks to international relations, compromise the security and safety of partners, prejudice national security, or reveal personal data that could infringe on privacy or breach confidentiality.
