Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment his Department has made of the effectiveness of the Overseas Security and Justice Assistance assessment made in respect of the Security, Justice and Reconciliation Programme in Iraq; and if he will lay that assessment before Parliament.
We have not conducted a formal assessment of the effectiveness of the Overseas Security and Justice Assistance (OSJA) assessments in respect of Security, Justice and Reconciliation Programmes in Iraq. However, OSJAs were conducted in line with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office OSJA guidance and all OSJAs are kept under regular review. The most recent review was conducted this month.
