Explosive Weapons and their Impact APPG

First Registered: 12/02/2025 • Last updated on: 07/05/2025

The APPG will keep Parliamentarians informed on all aspects of explosive ordnance disposal and humanitarian mine action, especially support for victims. The aim is to ensure suitable and sustainable government policy is developed. The APPG will explore issues through inquiries and briefings.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
