Oral Answers to Questions

Michael Fabricant Excerpts

Wednesday 22nd February 2017 Commons Chamber

[Priti Patel]

I thank the hon. Lady for her question. Specifically on DFID’s involvement, we engage across government on some of the really significant issues that are associated with Yemen, particularly on the humanitarian aspect. As I mentioned in my opening answer, there is a case under way right now, so I cannot comment on those ongoing legal matters.

[Michael Fabricant (Lichfield) (Con)]

[Mr Speaker]

As long as it is about export licences.
