Written Question
Palestinian Authority: Development Aid
Friday 19th December 2025

Asked by: Lord Leigh of Hurley (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government how much aid the UK has provided to the Palestinian Authority in each of the last 20 years.

Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Minister of State (Development)

More detailed breakdowns of individual programmes can be found at the Development Tracker website. We are clear that a reformed Palestinian Authority (PA) is essential to long-term stability in the region and making progress towards a two-state solution.
