Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government when the Special Envoy for Post-Holocaust Issues plans to visit Poland.
Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Minister of State (Development)
We continue to engage with Poland on post-Holocaust issues and tackling antisemitism, including through our Embassy in Warsaw. For instance, in February we facilitated a Community Security Trust best practice visit to Poland through our programme fund to support post-Holocaust initiatives for financial year 2025-26. Further details of our engagement with Poland on these issues, including any planned visits by the Special Envoy, will be confirmed in the usual way in due course.

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have any plans to conduct public awareness-raising activity funded by the taxpayer during the EU referendum period starting on 15 April, and if so, what activities they plan to undertake.
Answered by Baroness Anelay of St Johns
The Government is clear that this referendum is an important decision for the future of the UK. We are committed to ensuring the public are well informed before making a crucial choice about whether the UK should remain in or leave the EU, within the parameters of section 125 of the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000 covering the 28 days ending with the referendum.
The Government believes that the UK is stronger, safer and better off in a reformed EU.
