Written Questions can be tabled by MPs and Lords to request specific information information on the work, policy and activities of a Government Department
5th Nov 2025
To ask His Majesty's Government, having regard to part 6 of the Memorandum of Understanding on Strategic Cooperation between the United Kingdom and the Palestinian Government on education, published on 28 April, what recent discussions they have had with the Palestinian Authority to determine whether any UK aid is being used to support teaching materials in Palestinian schools that promote hatred, extremism or the glorification of terrorism; and what steps they plan to take should such use be identified.

The UK has a zero-tolerance approach to fraud and robust controls against the diversion of aid. We select our partners for the strong safeguards they have in place, which reduce delivery risks and will ensure the maximum impact of UK aid for Palestinians.

To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they are having with allies, including the United States of America, to ensure that violence perpetrated by Hamas in Gaza does not spread; what steps they are taking with allies to prevent the spread of that violence; and what assessment they have made of how the assertion of control by Hamas aligns with the ceasefire agreement.

I refer the Noble Lord to the answer given on 21 October to question HL10148.

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of Turkey's financial, military, and political ties with the proscribed terrorist organisation Hamas; and what plans they have to address concerns about a member of NATO financing Hamas.

The Government has proscribed Hamas as a terrorist organisation and condemns its unacceptable attacks against civilians. Turkey has not proscribed Hamas, which is a sovereign decision. The UK supports Turkish efforts to encourage Hamas and Israel to end the conflict in Gaza and is working with a range of international partners, including our North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) ally Turkey, to counter the threat of terrorism and secure a lasting peace in the Middle East.
