Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what contact he has had with Fayez Sharary or his family since his detainment in Israel in September 2016.

Both the British Embassy in Tel Aviv and British Consulate General in Jerusalem continue to provide consular assistance to Mr Sharary. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London has also been in regular contact with Mr Sharary's family since we were first made aware of his detention. We continue to closely monitor Mr Sharary's case and remain in contact with the local authorities.
