Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 29 October 2025 to Question 82390 on Iraq and Syria: Islamic State, what part the UK is taking in the re-structure of the Global Coalition against Daesh agreed at the Madrid Small Group meeting; and how the revised working group mechanisms will affect the UK’s regional priorities in (i) Syria, (ii) Iraq, (iii) Central Asia, and (iv) sub-Saharan Africa.

As stated in the answer to which the Hon Member refers, the UK's priority remains the enduring defeat of Daesh in all regions where they or their affiliates are operating, and we continue to work closely with a wide range of international partners towards that goal.
